Josh Dobbs is set to back up Brock Purdy this year with his eighth NFL team in as many years, but he's relied on his faith to get him through the weeds.

Josh Dobbs has had quite a roller coaster of an NFL career. The 2017 fourth-rounder made his second career start in a win-or-go-home game for the Tennessee Titans in the 2022 season. Set to back up in Cleveland in 2023, he was traded to the Arizona Cardinals less than two weeks before that season started to be their starter in Kyler Murray's absence. In the middle of that year, he was traded to the Minnesota Vikings and eventually found himself starting for them.

You have to believe that every situation you’re put in, you’ve been prepared for by the Lord above. … Quite frankly, no one’s ever grown by being perfect. No one’s ever grown by not making mistakes or facing adversity. It’s been a really cool journey, a cool story to show the next generation of student-athletes and people that aspire to be in the NFL to take advantage of your opportunities.

successful season for me is if I’m taking advantage of every opportunity. In practice, if I had two passes, were they my best two plays? Am I impacting my teammates on a day-in and day-out basis? How I carry myself, how I prepare, how I interact from a football and life perspective and using my platform for good to inspire the next generation, that’s how I measure success.
