Rest-of-Season Projections
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Dobbs certainly had his moments last season. Traded to Arizona late in camp, Dobbs started the first eight games for the Cardinals before being traded to Minnesota to replace an injured Kirk Cousins. He came off the bench days after the trade to lead the Vikings to victory and then won the next week as the starter, but that was the peak. By Week 14 he was benched, eventually demoted to No. 3. Dobbs signed with the 49ers in March to back up Brock Purdy, and if pressed into action likely will produce serviceable QB2 numbers similar to last year. Dobbs is plenty athletic (421 rushing yards, six TDs in 13 games) and perhaps coach Mike Shanahan’s scheme can help improve Dobbs’ accuracy after he ranked 30th in the league in on-target percentage (67.9). If nothing else, Dobbs can dump it off and let the 49ers’ many playmakers run for yards after the catch. Read Past Outlooks

Operating as emergency QB
Dobbs (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Cowboys, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Dobbs will once again operate as the team's emergency quarterback in Week 8. He'll only enter the game if both Brock Purdy and Brandon Allen are forced to exit with injuries.

Dobbs had a strong August and may have somehow landed himself a Week 1 starting job. He spent most of the summer competing with rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson for Cleveland's backup QB job, with the Browns eventually choosing the rookie and shipping Dobbs off to Arizona for a late-round pick swap. The Cardinals then released veteran backup QB Colt McCoy a few days later, leaving Dobbs and Clayton Tune as the top options with Kyler Murray (knee) set to open the year on the PUP list (which rules him out for at least four games).

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Third on QB depth chart
Dobbs will begin the season as San Francisco's third-string quarterback, as coach Kyle Shanahan said Thursday that Kyle Allen will back up Brock Purdy against the Jets in Monday's regular-season opener, per Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle.
ANALYSIS
Dobbs and Allen battled for the backup spot throughout training camp and the preseason, but the job ultimately went to Allen. Purdy went from third-stringer to starter in San Francisco's quarterback room just two years ago, so an injury-aided ascent up the depth chart isn't out of the question for Dobbs, but the mobile quarterback is fighting an uphill battle to see the field at all after starting 12 games in 2023, split between the Cardinals and Vikings.
