Dobbs, who recently joined the Detroit Lions, publicly criticized his former team Tuesday while discussing his unusual offseason. “It was a weird offseason because it was my first time not having OTAs and everything, and that was just by the nature of my situation in New England, with the timing,” Dobbs told reporters. New England already had Drake Maye entrenched as its franchise quarterback, and Dobbs was not viewed as a necessary part of the team’s long-term plans.
