Joshua Dobbs announcement that he is leaving the Mineesota Vikings now presents another significant issue for the team……

Joshua Dobbs did not have much time to learn the Minnesota Vikings playbook between arriving — he was traded to Minnesota from the Cardinals at last Tuesday’s deadline — and playing in their Week 9 game on Sunday, but he was still able to pull off a thrilling win over the Atlanta Falcons. Head coach Kevin O’Connell liked what he saw from Dobbs and announced Monday that he is awarding him first-team reps in practice this week.

The team’s expectation is that Dobbs will start in Week 10 against the New Orleans Saints, via NFL.com.

It was rookie Jaren Hall who got the start for Minnesota on Sunday. He left the game with a concussion, making Dobbs the offensive leader for the rest of the game. Dobbs went 20-for-30 with 158 yards and two touchdowns in the 31-28 victory in Atlanta.
