William Joseph Update
There was an interesting appearance however at the Giants offseason workouts. One of the less publicized "Miamites," William Joseph, did show up for conditioning. Perhaps realizing he's on his last legs with the team, is reaching out for that one final chance before he gets that big ugly axe.

JOSEPH GETTING NEW START AT END
November 17, 2006 -- This year, William Joseph, the Giants' 2003 first-round pick, has been very quiet - on and off the field.

On the field, after starting a career-high 10 games last season, the defensive tackle had been nearly invisible until starting last Sunday against the Bears. He only did so because nearly every other defensive lineman was draped in bandages.

Off the field, Joseph has been as silent as a Charlie Chaplin film. In fact, when he conducted an interview with The Post yesterday, it was believed to be his first of the year.

Joseph ends up in a starting role
William Joseph has been considered by many to be a disappointment as a defensive tackle since being drafted by the Giants in the first round of the 2003 draft.

Well, now he's getting a shot to prove himself at end -- at least temporarily.

Joseph was a surprise starter at left end last night against the Bears in place of injured Pro Bowler Michael Strahan, who is out 2-4 weeks with a sprained foot. The Giants were also without starting right end Osi Umenyiora (hip flexor) and backup Justin Tuck (foot), who were injured against the Cowboys three weeks ago.
