News: 2 days agoDobbs (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Spin: Dobbs will be the 49ers' emergency quarterback in Week 10. He'll only see the field Sunday if starter Brock Purdy and backup Brandon Allen are both forced to exit due to injuries.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: No one has logged more airline miles than Dobbs the past two years. After signing in some capacity with seven different teams over 24 months, the 29-year-old has an opportunity to work behind Brock Purdy this fall. Dobbs' most elating efforts came between Weeks 7 and 11 of 2023 wherein the Tennessee product scored a rushing touchdown in five straight games and averaged 21.2 fantasy points over those contests. Noting Kyle Shanahan's position-friendly scheme and the 49ers' elite pass-catching talent, Dobbs could find himself on the streaming radar if Purdy were to be sidelined.
