ESPN: Kerby Joseph is challenged by Dan Campbell to do better this year.
Safety Kerby Joseph is a veteran in the Detroit Lions’ secondary heading into his third season. It seems he’s embracing that kind of leadership position thus far in training camp. He has a significant statistical objective this year, so he’s definitely setting the bar high for himself. “I want to definitely lead the league in interceptions.That’s one of my key objectives. My goal is to become more reliable. On defence, I want to take on more of a leadership role. After suffering a hip injury early in the season, Joseph played the entire season until undergoing offseason surgery. Although his surface stats were strikingly identical to those of his rookie campaign, Pro Football Focus’s aggregate grade declined significantly, as we now know.
