News

  • Placed on IR

    The Steelers placed Joseph (ankle) on injured reserve Tuesday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: As expected, Joseph lands on injured reserve after news that he'd miss the remainder of the campaign due to an ankle injury. The 2016 first-round selection picked up the injury during Saturday's preseason game against the Seahawks.

  • Out for season

    Joseph (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2022 season, Dale Lolley of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.

    Analysis: Joseph was spotted with a walking boot and crutches after exiting Saturday's preseason game against Seattle. The 2016 first-round pick will likely be placed on season-ending IR in the near future.

  • Seen with walking boot and crutches

    Joseph was spotted using a walking boot and crutches after exiting Saturday's preseason game against Seattle with an ankle injury, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: While Joseph's injury status is still unconfirmed, his need for these walking aids is a discouraging sign for his short-term health moving forward. The veteran safety was elevated from the Steelers' practice squad for two games last season after being released by the Raiders in August of 2021. Unless he can get healthy again this preseason, it's likely that Pittsburgh will opt for younger players at backup safety over Joseph on the team's final 53-man roster.

  • Will not return Saturday

    Joseph will not participate in the remainder of Pittsburgh's preseason game against the Seahawks after sustaining an ankle injury Saturday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Joseph was seen having his right ankle looked at on Pittsburgh's sideline, though the exact severity of this injury is still unclear, per Alan Saunders of PittsburghSportsNow.com. The 28-year-old safety re-signed with the Steelers on a one-year deal in March after playing two games -- he posted one tackle and one pass defended -- for the team during the 2021 campaign. Once healthy this preseason, Joseph figures to compete with Linden Stephens, Miles Killebrew and Donovan Stiner for a depth role…read more

  • Remains in Pittsburgh

    Joseph signed a one-year contract with the Steelers on Thursday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Joseph spent the majority of the 2021 season on Pittsburgh's practice squad, though he did play in two games and record two tackles. If Terrell Edmunds ultimately lands elsewhere in free agency, Joseph should have the opportunity to earn a larger role in 2022.

  • Moves into practice squad

    Joseph (COVID-19) was restored into the Steelers' practice squad Saturday.

    Analysis: The safety tested positive for the virus earlier this week, but he was able to recover quickly and is back on the practice squad as a result. He has appeared in just two games for Pittsburgh this season, so his absence shouldn't affect many fantasy rosters going forward.

  • Enters COVID protocols

    Joseph was placed on the Steelers' practice squad COVID-19 list Monday after testing positive for the virus, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Joseph has appeared in two games for the Steelers this season, but none since Week 11 against the Chargers. The 2016 first-round selection will try to get healthy so he can focus on earning another chance with the active roster.

  • Let go by Raiders

    Joseph was released by the Raiders on Tuesday, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: It appears rookie second-round pick Trevon Moehrig won the starting free safety role, meaning Joseph will get an opportunity to sign elsewhere as a free agent. The 2016 first-round pick played 14 games for the Browns last year and recorded 67 tackles (46 solo), four pass breakups and an interception. He'll add dependable secondary depth with another team.

  • Heading to Las Vegas

    Joseph signed a contract with the Raiders on Friday.

    Analysis: Joseph spent his 2020 campaign with Cleveland, where he recorded 67 tackles (46 solo), one interception and four pass breakups through 14 games. When he was healthy, Joseph was an asset to the Browns' defense and will aim to play a similar role for Las Vegas this year.

  • Records pick in playoff loss

    Joseph had four tackles and an interception in Sunday's 22-17 playoff loss to the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Joseph's pick stopped a potential game-clinching drive and gave the Browns a chance to take the lead, but they chose to punt on fourth-and-9 at their own 32 and never possessed the ball again. Joseph, who dealt with a hamstring injury that cost him time during the regular season, was a key piece of the defense when healthy. He becomes an unrestricted free agent in 2021.

  • Sparks first half scoring binge

    Joseph had one tackle, one quarterback hit and recovered a fumble for a touchdown in Sunday's 48-37 wild-card win over Pittsburgh.

    Analysis: On the first play of the game, a snap sailed over the head of Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and bounced into the end zone where Joseph fell on it to open the scoring. On the next drive, Joseph's blitz led to a M.J. Stewart interception and Jarvis Landry touchdown. The Browns went on to build a 35-10 first-half lead and withstood a Pittsburgh second-half comeback. The fumble recovery was Joseph's third of the year, and the touchdown was the first of his career.

  • Activated off COVID list

    Joseph was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday.

    Analysis: Joseph never actually tested positive for coronavirus, but he was considered a high-risk close contact. Barring any setbacks, he figures to take on his usual role as the team's starting strong safety.

  • Added to COVID-19 list

    Joseph was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Joseph is deemed a close contact of someone who tested positive for the virus, presumably an individual within the Browns' organization. He could be available for Sunday's game, in which Cleveland could clinch a playoff spot with a win over Pittsburgh.

  • Enjoys productive SNF performance

    Joseph tallied 10 tackles, including one tackle for loss, and two pass deflections during Sunday night's 20-6 win against the Giants.

    Analysis: The 2016 first-round draft choice has started three consecutive games at strong safety with Ronnie Harrison (shoulder) residing on injured reserve. Joseph's Week 15 outing was by far the best of the three, as his 10 tackles easily surpassed a previous season high of seven. With two pass breakups, the 27-year-old also equaled his total from Weeks 1 through 14 combined.

  • Good to go Sunday

    Joseph (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game versus the Bengals, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Joseph will return to the lineup after a two-game hiatus to face off against the state rival. Through the first four games of the season, Joseph played nearly every defensive snap at strong safety and recorded 23 tackles, a pass breakup and an interception. He'll now have his eye on rookie quarterback Joe Burrow, who has thrown four picks through six contests.

  • Questionable Week 7

    Joseph (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: The 27-year-old was a limited practice participant this week after missing the past two games but may be able to retake the field Sunday. Ronnie Harrison cleared the concussion protocol and is in line to start should Joseph be unable to face Cincinnati.

  • Practices Wednesday

    Joseph (hamstring) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Dan Labbe of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Joseph missed the previous two games due to the injury but looks to get back on the field Week 7 against the Bengals. The player who took Joseph's spot in the lineup, Ronnie Harrison, also returned to practice Wednesday after clearing the league's concussion protocol.

  • Won't face Steelers

    Joseph (hamstring) is ruled out for Sunday's game in Pittsburgh, Andrew Gribble of the Browns' official site reports.

    Analysis: Joseph will miss his second straight contest due to a lingering hamstring injury, which sets up Ronnie Harrison to draw another start at strong safety. The Browns' Week 7 matchup against the Bengals will be Joseph's next opportunity to retake the field.

  • Missing more action

    Joseph (hamstring) was a nonparticipant during Wednesday's practice, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Joseph was forced to miss last week's win over the Colts with the hamstring issue, and, as evidenced by this news, he's trending in the wrong direction for Week 6. If he's forced to miss more action, Ronnie Harrison is expected to draw another start at strong safety.

  • Won't play Week 5

    Joseph (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Colts.

    Analysis: The 27-year-old was considered questionable with the hamstring injury and won't be available Sunday. Ronnie Harrison is poised to start in Joseph's absence.

  • Questionable Week 4

    Joseph is questionable for Sunday's game versus Indianapolis with a hamstring injury, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: The 27-year-old has 23 total tackles and one interception through four games, but his status for Week 4 is up in the air. Coach Kevin Stefanski said the team will use the next 50 hours to see how Joseph responds after suffering the injury Thursday, so he may end up being a game-time decision.

  • Back on practice field

    Joseph (foot) returned to practice Tuesday, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: A foot injury, which required surgery, ended Joseph's 2019 season after nine games, and he started training camp as a limited participant. The 26-year-old safety participated in 11-on-11 drills during Tuesday's session though, signaling that he's essentially at full health. Joseph is expected to start at strong safety for the Browns this year.

  • Limited practice

    Joseph was limited at Friday's practice due to a foot injury, Mary Kay Cabot and Joshua Gunter of the Cleveland Plain Dealer report.

    Analysis: Joseph was activated from the active/PUP list last week, but he was not a full participant in the Browns' first training camp practice. He's slotted in as the starter at strong safety.

  • Comes off PUP list

    The Browns activated Joseph (foot) from the active/PUP list Saturday, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Joseph missed the final seven games of last season due to a significant foot injury that required surgery. Even though he kicked off camp on the PUP list, he was believed to be on course for Week 1, which more or less was confirmed with Saturday's move. In four campaigns with the Raiders, Joseph averaged 77.1 tackles and 1.3 interceptions per 16 games played. He'll look to fill a similar void as the Browns' starting strong safety in 2020.

  • Said to be on schedule

    The Browns maintain that Joseph (foot) is on schedule in his rehab from November surgery, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Joseph signed a one-year contract in March while he was still rehabbing from the season-ending foot injury he'd suffered with the Raiders in November. He then said in April that he'd avoided any setbacks and was almost fully recovered, so it was a bit of a surprise to see him placed on the PUP list Monday. The Browns are still a couple weeks away from padded practices, giving Joseph a bit more time to recover. He seems to be a favorite for one of the starting jobs, but the Browns also have…read more

  • Placed on PUP list

    The Browns placed Joseph (foot) on the active/PUP list Monday.

    Analysis: Joseph underwent foot surgery this past November. He reportedly had not endured any setbacks as of April, but he's still clearly not ready for training camp. He projects as the team's starting strong safety when healthy. In his absence, J.T. Hassell and Elijah Benton presumably will get most of the reps at practice.

  • Recovery on track

    Joseph (foot) has not experienced any setbacks since undergoing surgery in November, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Joseph agreed to a one-year contract with the Browns last month and signed to deal Monday. However, he has been unable to take his physical due to the current COVID-19 pandemic. His recovery is considered on the right track, so there should not be any concern at this point. The 2016 first-round pick projects as a Week 1 starter in the Browns secondary.

  • Inks deal with Cleveland

    Joseph (foot) signed a one-year contract with the Browns on Wednesday, Josina Anderson of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Joseph injured his foot in Week 10 and required season-ending surgery, but before that, he compiled 49 tackles and three pass breakups through nine games with the Raiders. The 2016 first-round pick will likely be a Week 1 starter in the Cleveland secondary.

  • Undergoes surgery

    Joseph underwent surgery to address his foot injury Wednesday, per his official Instagram account.

    Analysis: Joseph sustained a season-ending foot injury during Week 10's win over the Chargers. The 26-year-old notched 49 tackles (38 solo), three defended passes, one interception and one fumble recovery across nine contests in 2019. He'll now focus on making a full recovery for the 2020 season.

  • Put on IR

    Joseph (foot) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: This move confirms the fears that Joseph's injury was of the season-ending variety. The Raiders promptly used the roster spot created by the move to sign defensive end Dion Jordan.

  • Could miss rest of season

    Joseph (foot) could potentially be sidelined for the remainder of the season due to the injury he sustained in Thursday's 26-24 victory over the Chargers, Jerry McDonald of the Bay Area News Group reports.

    Analysis: Joseph has made game-ending plays in each of the Raiders' previous two victories, and also is second on the team in tackles. His absence in the secondary will certainly be felt in the immediate future. There is no official timeframe on the injury, but the fear is that he might not be able to return this season. Fellow safety Lamarcus Joyner (undisclosed) is also considered week-to-week, so the Raiders could be thin in the secondary in Week 11. Erik Harris, D.J. Swearinger, Curtis Riley and even…read more

  • Injury believed to be serious

    Joseph (foot) is believed to have sustained a significant injury during Thursday's 26-24 win over the Chargers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Joseph suffered a knee injury while intercepting Philip Rivers late in the fourth quarter and sealing Thursday's win for Oakland. He required the use of crutches following the contest, and the initial results of Friday's MRI don't bode well for Joseph's chances of suiting up Week 11 against the Bengals. The nature and severity of the issue will be determined in due time.

  • Dealing with knee injury

    Joseph (knee) was spotted on crutches following Thursday's 26-24 win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: Joseph was responsible for Philip Rivers' third interception of the game, sealing the Raiders' fifth win of the season. Unfortunately, Joseph said he felt his right knee buckle on the play and the use of crutches is cause for concern. The fourth-year pro will be evaluated Friday and will aim to get healthy for Week 11's matchup against the Bengals.

    Analysis: Joseph snagged the game-sealing interception but incurred an injury on the play. Coach Jon Gruden didn't expand on the nature of Joseph's injury after the game. Joseph now has 10 days to get healthy for Week 11's matchup against the Bengals.
