The Jacksonville Jaguars have obtained quarterback Josh Dobbs at a trade with Pittsburgh, giving them a copy while Nick Foles recovers from a broken collarbone.
The Jaguars gave up their fifth-round pick for Dobbs, that was in his third season with the Steelers at the 2020 draft. He had been a choice in 2017.
Dobbs, who’s played in five career matches, will back up rookie Gardner Minshew. Sunday minshew completed 22 of 25 passes for 275 yards, with 2 touchdowns and an interception, in his NFL debut.
Minshew substituted Foles in the first quarter and completed 88 percent of his passes, becoming the most precise single-game passer in Jaguars history (minimum 25 attempts).
His completion percentage was the greatest for any player with at least 15 pass attempts earning his NFL debut.
His left clavicle was broken by foles on Jacksonville’s 10th offensive play of this season. On while casting a TD pass to DJ 15, he landed and was struck.
The Jaguars placed Foles on injured reserve. If He’s designated Foles will be eligible to return to practice in late October and could be eligible to play in Week 11
