Kerby Joseph Won't Be Cleared To Practice Until Training Camp
Detroit Lions safety Kerby Joseph (arm) will not be cleared to practice until training camp this summer while he recovers from an arm injury. Joseph suffered the arm injury during the NFC Championship game loss to the San Francisco 49ers, and it's going to keep him out of workouts this spring. But as long as the 23-year-old doesn't suffer a setback when he gets back on the field in training camp, he should be ready for the start of the 2024 regular season and will operate as Detroit's starting free safety. The former third-rounder in 2022 out of Illinois has recorded 164 tackles (124 solo), eight interceptions, 19 passes defended, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery in 32 games (29 starts) in his first two years in the NFL. When healthy, Joseph is on the fantasy radar in IDP leagues for depth at the DB position.
Detroit Lions safety Kerby Joseph (head) has entered concussion protocol and is officially questionable to return versus the Baltimore Ravens in Week 7. The 22-year-old was all over the field on Sunday; his 10 tackles were a season-high and tied his previous career-best. Ifeatu Melifonwu should see more snaps in Joseph's absence.
