Will Lions' Kerby Joseph play vs. Dolphins? Dan Campbell weighs in

Detroit Lions safety Kerby Joseph will take some reps with the scout team this week, coach Dan Campbell said Tuesday morning, Nov. 3, on "Costa & Jansen with Heather" on 97.1 The Ticket.Joseph (knee) returned to practice off the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list last Wednesday, beginning his 21-day acclimation window before the team must decide whether he's healthy enough to put on the active roster or shut him down for the season.Campbell poured cold water on a potential return to action this week, ruling Joseph out of the Sunday, Nov. 8, game against the Miami Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium."He's not going to play in this game. ... He's not playing versus Miami," Campbell said. "He's just gonna get some reps ... in practice."In his first few days back, Joseph took part in group and individual drills but did not participate in any team periods. He told reporters on Oct. 30 that he'll be back on the field "whenever God wants me to be on the field."More: 'Who was that?': Kerby Joseph's return to practice surprises Lions teammatesWith Detroit hit by several defensive injuries on Sunday, the Lions could use Joseph back sooner rather than later.
