Not coming to be “the savior”
Joseph has no intention of coming to Tennessee to try and replace Logan Ryan and be some kind of savior. Instead, he’s ready to fill in where need be and do whatever is asked of him.
#Titans CB Johnathan Joseph: "My role is to come in and do what's asked of me." Said he's not focused on coming in and replacing Logan Ryan, not coming here to be "the savior."

Joseph was once a No. 1 corner, but at the age of 36 that is no longer the case. That doesn’t matter, though, as the veteran was really brought in to be depth and a leader who can also be like an extra coach.
His love for the game keeps him playing into his late 30s.
On a conference call, new #Titans CB Johnathan Joseph said his love of the game is what continues to drive him heading into his 15th NFL season.
