(Edmonton) The Edmonton Eskimos have signed veteran free agent quarterback Kerry Joseph.

Eskimo General Manager Eric Tillman says ¬Å Kavis Reed, Marcus Crandell and I have great respect for Kerry and feel he ¬â¢ll make us stronger. Not only does Kerry provide us with the valuable insurance of having a former CFL MOP, but also his veteran presence will be valuable in our locker room, especially as a mentor for our young quarterbacks. We're hoping to keep two veteran quarterbacks and a rookie on our 42 man roster with another rookie on our practice squad."
