In the early morning hours of November 16, 2014, Joseph attempted to de-escalate a verbal altercation between two groups of men outside of the Allure nightclub in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

Before his death Joseph was an assistant football coach at West St. John High School in Edgard, Louisiana.

Joseph was married with a young daughter and a second child due just weeks after his death. His younger brother, Dray Joseph, was also a quarterback at West Saint John, and played collegiately for Southern University, where he became the school's all-time leading passer with 8,745 yards and 73 touchdowns, and led the Jaguars to a 9-4 record and a SWAC championship as a senior in 2013.

Joseph joined the Lafayette Wildcatters two days prior to the start of the 2010 SIFL season. The team began the year 1-4 before Joseph became the starter. With Joseph at the helm, the team soared to a 5-1 turnaround, achieving a winning season and a playoff berth.

Joseph was signed by the Edmonton Eskimos in March 2009.

Joseph was traded to the Saskatchewan Roughriders for Kitwana Jones on May 15, 2009. He was cut on June 25, 2009.

As a senior in 2008, Joseph led the Majors to the second best season in the program's history. The team finished 11-1 and ranked #12 nationally in the D3football.com poll, after peaking at #3 during the season. Joseph was for the third consecutive year the SCAC player of the year. He also won the Conerly Trophy, given annually to the best college football player in the state of Mississippi, edging out fellow finalists and future first-round NFL Draft selections Michael Oher and Peria Jerry. He was also a finalist for the Gagliardi Trophy.

In 2007, Joseph again led the Majors to a SCAC title, the team finishing with an 8-2 record. He was again named the conference's player of the year.

As a sophomore in 2006, Joseph led a resurgence of the Majors' struggling program, under the tutelage of new head coach Mike DuBose, formerly the head coach of the Alabama Crimson Tide. The Majors finished with a 7-4 record (6-0 in conference play), claiming the program's third SCAC title and second-ever playoff berth. Joseph was named the conference's player of the year.

During his tenure, the Majors accumulated a 28-14 overall win-loss record, including a 20-6 record in conference play, three SCAC title's and two playoff appearances. Joseph's priority while at college was not to play professionally. A good student, he admitted it would be nice, but this was not one of his goals.
