Joseph transferred to West Virginia from Northwestern during the 2024 offseason. In 2024, Joseph recorded 41 total tackles, two pass deflections and an interception.

Despite WVU’s secondary being a weakness all season, Joseph’s individual production took a step up from his three years at Northwestern. He made just 23 tackles, granted did pick off three passes, in 2023.

He still has one more year left of eligibility.
