Ex-Cowboys cornerback Kelvin Joseph was taken into custody Saturday morning on a felony charge in Texas due to his alleged role in a deadly car accident, as per arrest records examined by The Post.

Joseph, 25, was charged with driving while intoxicated, a misdemeanor, and collision involving personal injury or death, a felony.

The Richardson Police Department shared on Facebook that Joseph called them at 5:39 a.m. local time, confessing his participation in the crash. Joseph, a former University of Kentucky player, was involved in the incident, according to the authorities’ statement.

Police allege that Joseph’s BMW hit a motorcycle, resulting in the death of a 27-year-old woman.

Authorities added in a statement that they “observed signs of intoxication” from Joseph and that an investigation is underway.

This is not Joseph’s first brush with the law, as in 2022, he was present in a vehicle with a suspected shooter in Dallas before a firearm incident occurred.

Police ultimately concluded Joseph was not the shooter, being cleared of any wrongdoing shortly after.

“We obviously don’t need our players to be involved in situations that make this come up about your character,” Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said at the time. “He needs to be a good player on and off the field and we’re going to give him a chance to do that. [Our message to him is] Now get in here and be a good player, be a guy everybody depends on, and make your name in a positive way and clean it up.”

The Cowboys drafted Joseph in the second round of the 2021 NFL Draft, and he played in 26 games across two seasons with the team before being traded to the Dolphins ahead of the 2023 campaign.

Joseph played in four games for Miami before being traded to the Seahawks midway through that season.

He has since made multiple NFL practice squads, but has failed to appear in a regular-season game.

The defensive back is now on the roster of the UFL’s DC Defenders after playing in nine games this season.
