Houston Texans: Jonathan Joseph 10th all-time in passes defensed

Houston Texans cornerback Jonathan Joseph put his name on an all-time NFL career list this past Sunday night as he is now ranked 10th all-time in passes defensed with 173 total in 177 games played.

This season Joseph has five passes defensed in five games, and three times in his career he’s finished a season with 20-plus passes defensed, including a season-best 22 passes defensed in 2015. His other 20-or-more passes defensed in a season came in 2006 and 2009 with the Cincinnati Bengals with 20 in each of those seasons.

For the 2018 season, Joseph ranks tied for 16th overall with the aforementioned five passes defensed, as he is tied with 19 others players for that spot.
