Kevin O’Connell Noncommittal on Josh Dobbs as Vikings’ Starter After Loss vs. Bears

Josh Dobbs threw four interceptions as he struggled during the Vikings’ 12–10 loss to the Bears on Monday Night Football.

After the game, head coach Kevin O’Connell was asked if he was considering a quarterback change with Minnesota’s bye week looming. In response, O’Connell did not commit to Dobbs as the Vikings’ starter, saying the team plans to “take a look at everything.”

“I think what Josh Dobbs has done, coming in here on short notice and going 2–2 in a stretch where, a lot of people might have thought, ‘Kirk Cousins and Justin Jefferson being out, the deck’s stacked against us.’ That’s not the way this team thinks, that’s not the way we operate,” O’Connell said.
