Steelers trade Dobbs to Jaguars for fifth-round pick

PITTSBURGH -- The Steelers went into training camp this year with a question about who would be their No. 2 quarterback behind starter Ben Roethlisberger, incumbent Josh Dobbs or second-year player Mason Rudolph.

And when Rudolph won the job with a good preseason, Dobbs was bumped to the No. 3 spot.

Monday, according to ESPN, Dobbs got a bump up on the depth chart -- in Jacksonville.

The Steelers traded Dobbs, a 2017 fourth-round draft pick, to the Jaguars for a 2020 fifth-round selection after Jacksonville starting quarterback Nick Foles suffered a season-ending clavicle injury in the team's 40-26 loss Sunday to the Chiefs.
