Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel named Josh Dobbs the team's starting quarterback for their win-and-in matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Saturday, according to team reporter Jim Wyatt.

Dobbs will get the start over rookie Malik Willis.

The 27-year-old passer made his first career start last week against the Dallas Cowboys just eight days after being signed from the Detroit Lions' practice squad. He completed 20 of 39 attempts for 232 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in the 27-13 loss and ran three times for 12 yards.

Dobbs got the nod against Dallas after Willis went 1-2 in three starts this season. Willis struggled with accuracy, completing just 50.9% of his attempts for three interceptions and no scores.

The Titans and Jaguars kick off their win-or-go-home contest Saturday at 8:15 p.m. ET.
