With Chargers running back J.K. Dobbins set to become a free agent this offseason, what could his next contract be?
Pro Football Focus recently made a projection for Dobbins and the other top 100 free agents this offseason.
According to PFF, they are projecting that Dobbins will land a two-year deal with $7 million. This includes $4 million guaranteed.
Signed last offseason, Dobbins’ play exceeded his $1.6 million prove-it deal. He set a career-high in rushing yards (905) and tied his personal best in rushing touchdowns (9).
After spending most of his time with the Ravens on the sidelines due to multiple lower-body injuries, Dobbins managed to stay healthy for most of the season, appearing in 13 games in 2024.
As a result of his bounce-back campaign, Dobbins is a finalist for the Associated Press’ Comeback Player of the Year Award.
It’s clear that Dobbins boosts the running game when he is on the field. However, the consistency of his health remains a question mark.
Nonetheless, the Chargers would be wise to bring him back, especially considering how cheap he should be.
