  • Michael Joseph: Looking for a new job

    Joseph (undisclosed) worked out for the Browns on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Joseph was waived by the Bears from injured reserve in October last year, but it appears he has put the undisclosed injury behind him and is looking for a new NFL opportunity. The undrafted product out of Dubuque's only NFL appearance came in 2021 when he failed to record any counting stats across nine snaps (three defensive) for the Bears.

  • Bears' Michael Joseph: Not practicing Monday

    Joseph (thumb) did not practice Monday, Larry Mayer of the Bears' official site reports.

    Joseph was listed on the injury report with a broken thumb, but it is unknown when the injury actually occurred. So far there is no indication of moving the 2018 undrafted free agent to injured reserve, but he will surely be limited if he tries to play through the pain.
