Oakland Raiders safety Karl Joseph is a man of his word and a good son.
Joseph said in an Instagram post that he promised to buy his mom her dream house in the eighth grade, and the 23-year-old made good on that promise on Monday.

“He comes from very humble beginnings,” Joseph’s agent, Chafie Fields, told TMZ Sports. “Ultimately, his goal was being able to provide for his mom.
“He didn’t want to buy himself a car. Didn’t want to buy himself a house. He wanted to get his mom a house.”
The Raiders’ first-round draft pick had a successful rookie season, posting 60 tackles, six passes defended and an interception in 12 games. He looks to be worth every bit of that four-year, $12 million contract he signed.
