Joshua Dobbsthe quarterback for the Minnesota Vikingsrecently spoke out regarding the events leading up to his trade from the Arizona Cardinals. In an interview with FOX9, Dobbs shared his frustration with coach Jonathan Gannonwho he claims lied to him multiple times.
After a disappointing loss to the Baltimore RavensGannon informed Dobbs that he would be starting once morest the Cleveland Browns the following week. However, the next day, Gannon changed his tune and told Dobbs that rookie Clayton Tune would be starting instead. Despite this setback, Gannon reassured Dobbs that he would not be traded or released.
But the very next day, Dobbs received a text from his agent saying he might potentially be traded to either the Vikings or the Browns. And sure enough, Dobbs was eventually traded to Minnesota.
Despite the chaos surrounding his trade, Dobbs quickly made an impact for the Vikings. Just five days following being traded, he came off the bench and played most of the game once morest the Falcons, leading his team to a 31-28 victory. Dobbs’ impressive performance earned him Offensive Player of the Week honors and another start the following week once morest the Saints.
Dobbs just want to play and contribute
Reflecting on his experience, Dobbs had this to say: “It was definitely a whirlwind 36 hours. But I’m just grateful for the opportunity to play and contribute to my new team.”
Dobbs’ story serves as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of professional sports. One minute you can be starting for one team, and the next you can find yourself traded to another. But despite the uncertainty, Dobbs remained focused and determined to make the most of his new opportunity.
As for Gannon’s alleged lies, Dobbs seemed to take it all in stride. “It’s part of the business,” he said. “Coaches have to make tough decisions and sometimes that means being dishonest with players. It’s not personal.”
