49ers backup QB Joshua Dobbs has up-and-down final game before free agency

GLENDALE, Ariz. — Joshua Dobbs spent the 2024 season in a backup role, seeing mop-up action in one game. With starter Brock Purdy out, Dobbs got the call for San Francisco in the season finale against Arizona in what amounted to an audition for next season. Obviously, turnovers killed us — that was the difference in the game.” Dobbs had whirlwind 2023 — including a stint in Arizona — before earning a backup role with San Francisco this year. Arizona’s Kyler Murray hit Greg Dortch on a 23-yard touchdown pass on the ensuing drive, helping the Cardinals build a 20-17 halftime lead.
