Former Tennessee Vols quarterback Josh Dobbs is on the move again. 

Just two months after getting traded from the Cleveland Browns to the Arizona Cardinals, Dobbs has been traded again. 

According to multiple reports, the Cardinals traded Dobbs to the Minnesota Vikings on Tuesday afternoon. 

Dobbs has been in the NFL since 2017, but he didn't make first career start until Week 17 last season with the Tennessee Titans (he also started in Week 18). 

The former Vol started the first eight games of the season for the Cardinals and played well despite Arizona's 1-7 record. He's completed over 60 percent of his passes for 1,569 yards, eight touchdowns and five interceptions. He's also rushed for 258 yards and three touchdowns.

Over a 17 game season, those numbers would extrapolate to 3,334 passing yards, 17 passing touchdowns, 548 rushing yards and six rushing touchdowns.

The Vikings, a team that's in second place in the NFC North, were in need of a quarterback after learning that Kirk Cousins tore his Achilles tendon this past weekend.
