The New York Giants drafted him in the 46th round of the 2010 NFL Draft. He was also a player for the Minnesota Vikings.
From 2007 to 2009, Joseph attended East Carolina University. He had 143 tackles during his college career, including 29.5 for loss, and 6.5 sacks. As a junior, he was first-team All Conference USA (C-USA).
As a sophomore in 2008, Joseph was among East Carolina top 10 tacklers, finishing with a total of 43 stops, with eight of those coming behind the line of scrimmage for a loss of 34 yards. He played in all 14 games and opened the last nine consecutive contests on the inside of the Pirates’ defensive front. He posted six or more stops in three of the last four games and was an honorable mention All-Conference USA selection by the league coaches. He helped the Pirates’ defensive unit hold three opponents to under 100 rushing yards and two opponents to less than 100 passing yards, while forcing a total of 33 turnovers that ranked seventh in the nation. He opened the year as a preseason All-Conference USA selection by analyst Phil Steele, despite missing much of fall camp due to a back injury, which came after losing +70 pounds following the 2007 campaign. He made his first start of the year against Virginia on October 11 and never left the starting lineup for the remainder of the year. On December 6, he enjoyed a career-high nine-tackle performance against Tulsa in the Conference USA Championship Game, which also included a forced fumble and a batted pass. In the third quarter, he dropped Golden Hurricane quarterback David Johnson behind the line on a rush where he forced his first career fumble on a third-and-five play. He then followed with seven stops against Kentucky in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl, a career-best three resulting in lost yardage. He was also credited with a pair of blocked extra-point attempts against the Wildcats.
In the 2009 season, Joseph appeared in all 14 games. He recorded 60 tackles, three sacks, 13 tackles-for-loss, and one pass defended. Following his junior season in 2009, Joseph announced his intention to forgo his remaining eligibility at East Carolina and enter the 2010 NFL Draft.
Joseph was a true freshman and played in all 13 games. He had four starts and recorded 40 total tackles (13 solo, 27 assist). His 23 yard loss of tackles and 8.5 tackles ranked fourth, with his five quarterback hurries ranking fourth. He was part of a defense that kept four opponents to less than 80 yards of rushing. In the fourth week, he made his debut against #5 West Virginia. He finished with four tackles. Although he made his college debut on national television at Virginia Tech in the season opener, he was not given any statistics. He was defeated by Southern Miss for his first career sack (half). In that game against Eagles, he also recovered a fumble. He had eight tackles in the Pirates’ loss to Marshall on November 10. The media and coaches named him to the 2007 Conference USA All-Freshman Team.
