Kerby Joseph

22-Year-Old SafetyS
2022 Fantasy Outlook
There are high expectations for the third-round rookie, and Joseph has drawn praise from his coaches during training camp. While DeShon Elliott seems to have a solid hold on the starting spot at safety next to Tracy Walker this year, Joseph is the future at that position. Read Past Outlooks

Four picks as rookie
SDetroit Lions
February 2, 2023
Joseph tallied 83 tackles, eight pass breakups, four interceptions and two forced fumbles over 17 games in 2022.
ANALYSIS
Detroit's defense took a big hit after losing safety Tracy Walker (Achilles) in Week 3, but Joseph was largely successful in filling in for the veteran. Not only did the rookie manage to become the first player to ever pick off Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers three times in a year, Joseph simultaneously showed plenty of upside as an IDP asset -- starting with his 10-tackle, two-interception performance against Green Bay in Week 9. However, with Walker set to return in 2023, it is not clear as to whether Joseph will continue to handle the role that allowed him to post these kinds of stats.
