The Detroit Lions are a beloved team around the league, but they have at least one player that many fan bases dislike.
The Lions picked up their 11th win in a row on Thursday night, defeating the division rival Green Bay Packers, but it did come with controversy.
Detroit defensive back Kerby Joseph tried his best to hit Packers tight end Tucker Kraft in the knee with his helmet.
It was a dirty-looking play, given the two’s history and the Detroit Lions player’s overall history.
Fans want him suspended for his actions:
“Kerby Joseph might actually be a scumbag, and the league has to do something about it if they’re truly about player safety. He shredded TJ Hockenson and Tyler Higbee’s knees exactly like this and tried it again with Tucker Kraft last night,” one fan said.
“Kerby Joseph tried to end Tucker Kraft’s season. I’ve been told the Lions aren’t dirty tho,” another fan added.
One fan asked: “Am I reaching or does #0 (couldn’t tell you his name) aim for krafts head before he ducks last second after Kerby Joseph gets juked the fuck out for trying to end his season?”
One fan made it clear that the Detroit Lions starter needs to face a punishment: “Kirby Joseph deserves a fine and should be suspended for the rest of the season and most of the postseason.”
Another fan wants him out of the league, stating, “Kerby Joseph continues to do this crap. Head down, targeting the knees. He belongs out of the league.”
One final fan added: “Kerby Joseph is dirty AF. He’s already altered the careers of 2 top-tier TEs last year and he continues to try to hurt players. NFL won’t do a thing because this is just the Lions “tough physical culture”. BS.”
It should be noted that Kerby Joseph tore Higbee’s ACL and tore Hockenson’s ACL.
Detroit Lions Safety Kerby Joseph May Have Been Targeting Tucker Kraft After Previous Comments
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft and Detroit Lions safety Kerby Joseph had plenty to say before and during Thursday night’s showdown.
Kraft praised Joseph before the game but also mentioned his habit of going low and injuring a few players during his career.
“He’s a good DB,” Kraft said this week. “I might not agree with some of the places he likes to lay contact. He’s taken some of my brothers out of the game, and I think about that, too. I get my chance to get my hands on him playing football.”
Just before Thursday Night Football, Kraft and Joseph got into a jawing match.
Later in the game, Joseph tried to go low on Kraft.

Taylor Swift is the most famous pop star in the world. She has broken records in the music industry time and time again. Travis Kelce is one of the best tight ends in the NFL, and his Chiefs squad is currently undefeated.
Swift and Kelce began dating in September 2023 after Kelce relentlessly tried to get the mega-famous pop star’s attention. He was successful, and the two have made tons of headlines since then.
One of the more read headlines was that the two might be nearing an exciting point in their relationship, especially for fans of the aptly named “Tayvis” relationship, and that is that they were soon to be engaged.
It has been reported repeatedly that Swift and Kelce have wanted to get engaged for a while now, but nothing has come to fruition. However, a ring that Swift wore to the Chiefs game against the Broncos once again has fans talking.

Are Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Getting Engaged Soon?
Swift showed up to the game in style, as always. She wore a stylish flannel-like skirt with a matching coat over a black top, which coincidentally matched her boots. To complement it all, she wore a $33k ring.
“Rubies have long been regarded as symbols of strength, passion, and protection,” said jeweler Steven Stone, who valued the ring. “Known for their deep red hue, they’re believed to bring courage and vitality to their wearer, making them an ideal choice for someone like Taylor Swift, whose resilience and power shine through as her Eras Tour continues to captivate audiences around the world.”
Taylor has been spotted many times wearing jewelry that references her boyfriend. However, nothing has been confirmed about the couple’s engagement yet. If one thing is certain: Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce getting Engaged would break the internet.

In the wake of quarterback Deshaun Watson’s miserable season-opening outing against the Dallas Cowboys, Browns fans speculated if he had a burner account to defend himself.
Internet detectives zoned in on the X account of one Leroy Bickerstaff (@LeroyBickers4), who has posted glowing remarks about Watson despite a disappointing start to the season.
That was then, and this is now.
It appears that fans have found a separate account that is now being linked to Deshaun Watson.
The account, @VPritchs, suddenly began defending the Browns quarterback during halftime of Sunday’s game, and many accused the quarterback of running the page and tweeting from the locker room.

The Cleveland Browns had multiple opportunities in the fourth quarter to rally for a win for the second straight week, but they ultimately fell short.
Deshaun Watson said to blame himself after Cleveland blew an early 10-0 lead and lost 20-16 to the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday.
The loss dropped the team to 1-3 on the year.
Deshaun Watson Is Once Again Dealing With More Off The Filed Trouble Amid Rough Season
Deshaun Watson and the Browns lost yet again on Sunday, Falling to the Raiders, 20-16, in Las Vegas.
He finished the game by completing 24 of 32 passes for 176 yards, a touchdown, and an interception.
Watson’s woes on the field can also be attributed to what he is dealing with off the field, as another woman is accusing him of sexual assault stemming from an alleged October 2020 incident in a new lawsuit filed earlier this month.
He was previously suspended for 11 games in 2022 and fined $5 million by the league amid accusations of sexual misconduct by massage therapists.
Twenty-three of the 24 civil lawsuits filed against Watson were settled in 2022, according to ESPN.

Travis Kelce is proud to have girlfriend Taylor Swift by his side, and he doesn’t mind that the whole world is watching.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been dating since at least September 2023 when she shocked everybody by showing up to Arrowhead Stadium. The move came months after Kelce first publicly expressed interest in Swift, after attending one of her concerts and failing to send a friendship bracelet to her with his number on it.
Travis Kelce knows just how obsessed the world is with his relationship.
“I’m very aware,” Kelce said when asked whether he understands the “impact” his romance with Taylor Swift was having on the NFL.
“Obviously, this is mostly because Taylor’s in my life now and we got her [to be] part of Chiefs Kingdom,” he explained in a resurfaced interview with sports reporter Laura Okmin ahead of the Super Bowl.
“And sure enough, that brought an entire entourage of human beings who just love to support her and love to support everything that she’s about.”
He used an incredible word to describe their relationship.
“With that being said, I do, you know, have a guarded approach to it,” he explained before Super Bowl 58. “But at the same time, I know what me and Taylor have is special, so I get [the interest].”
Taylor Swift was spotted at 13 of Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs football games this past season, first popping up in a box at Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri on Sept. 24, 2023. The team won 10 of the 13 games at which she’s been in attendance.
That also included the team winning playoff games over the Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills, Baltimore Ravens, and then the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl.
Kelce finished the Super Bowl with nine receptions for 93 yards, including a crucial catch in overtime.
The 34-year-old slowed down slightly in 2023, finishing with 93 catches for 984 yards and five touchdowns. It should be noted he did miss two games, Week 1 due to injury and Week 17 as he chose to sit out with the Chiefs not playing for anything.
