According to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, Josh Dobbs inked a one-year, $1.425 million deal with $475 thousand fully guaranteed. That is a strong commitment. Still, it’s less than what Bridgewater made. He was one of the potential replacements for the Lions as Bridgewater retired.

The now-retired QB had inked a one-year, $1.8 million contract with the Detroit Lions in March 2026, which included $1.59 million guaranteed. However, Bridgewater was a more well-regarded QB than the ‘Passtronaut‘.

Josh Dobbs’ profile

Standing at 6’3″ and 220 lbs, Dobbs is a 31-year-old quarterback who has been regarded as a valuable backup in the NFL. Dobbs, whose ‘Passtronaut‘ nickname comes from his degree as an Aerospace Engineer, has played for the Steelers, Titans, Cardinals, Vikings, 49ers, and Patriots.

Dobbs has 3,346 passing yards for 17 touchdowns and 15 interceptions on 62.8 completion percentage and a 78.3 passer rating. Where Dobbs enjoyed his best football was in 2023, where he started 12 games for Arizona and Minnesota.

Dobbs is likely not seeing the field much though

The Detroit Lions have a solid QB1 in Jared Goff, who is a borderline top 10 quarterback in the NFL. Hence, unless he is injured, the likelihood of Dobbs taking the field is very dim.

Still, as a veteran, Dobbs is a very serviceable and smart quarterback. So, if he indeed needs to be under center, he will surely know the playbook at a good rate. Dobbs have been around a long time in this league.

So, there are only two games remanining and the Cowboys might get another big break when they face the Titans. Tennessee have already ruled out eight players and the list could not be over. For example, QB Ryan Tannehillwon’t be available with an ankle injury and Josh Dobbs or Malik Willis will getthe call as starting quarterback.

However, the bad news keep coming for the Titans. Prior to the long awaited matchup with the Dallas Cowboys, a huge star is doubtful and, according to many reports, Mike Vrabel decision leans to play without him.

Will Derrick Henry play against the Dallas Cowboys?

First of all, this is the list of players already ruled out by the Titans against the Dallas Cowboys.QB Ryan Tannehill (ankle), DLJeffery Simmons(ankle), OLB Bud Dupree (pectoral), OT Nicholas Petit-Frere(ankle), S Amani Hooker(knee), LB Zach Cunningham(elbow), LB Dylan Cole(ankle) and DB Josh Thompson(concussion).

Derrick Henry has been extraordinary this season with 1429 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns. However, according to a report from Tom Pelissero, the Tennessee Titanswon’t use him because of ‘precautionary reasons’. The official information from the Titans confirmedhe missed practice on Monday and was limited on Tuesday and Wednesday.

In the end, head coach Mike Vrabel has a huge argument to leave him out. The Titans don’t play for much at all against the Cowboys considering they’ll face the Jacksonville Jaguars in the last week of the season. That divisional matchup, regardless of the outcome in Cowboys vs Titans, will determine who is the AFC South champion and goes to the playoffs.
