Josh Dobbs Wins Award for His Week 9 Performance

Related Topics: Joshua Dobbs, Minnesota Vikings

Last weekend against the Atlanta Falcons, the Minnesota Vikings seemed dead to rights after rookie QB Jaren Hall went down with a concussion in the first quarter.

In came Josh Dobbs, who Minnesota acquired via trade just five days before the game, and the first couple drives looked very rough, including a safety and a strip sack.

However, the veteran journeyman bounced back in a huge way for Minnesota during the second half and led the Vikings to a comeback victory over Atlanta. For his efforts in that game, Dobbs has won the NFC Offensive Player of the Week award for Week 9.
