Hamilton Tiger-Cats sign former Buffalo Bills, Florida Gators linebacker Vosean Joseph

The Hamilton Tiger-Cats announced Wednesday (Mar. 9) the Canadian Football League club has signed American linebacker Vosean Joseph.

Joseph, 24, most recently spent time with the National Football League’s Buffalo Bills (2019-20) after being selected by the Bills in the fifth round, 147th overall, in the 2019 NFL Draft.

The six-foot-one, 230-pound native of Miami, Florida spent the 2019 season on injured reserve after suffering a season-ending injury in Buffalo’s final preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings.

Joseph played 37 games over three seasons (2016-18) at the University of Florida, registering 161 total tackles, 14 tackles for loss, four quarterback sacks, seven pass breakups and one interception.

Joseph’s best game in college came in 2018 against LSU and future Heisman Trophy winner Joe Burrow. Joseph finished with 14 tackles and a pair of sacks.
