Last week it was offensive tackle Jimmy Bennett who got the chance to help his NFL draft stock when he played in the Medal of Honor Bowl. Now it is defensive end Jesse Joseph's turn.

Joseph, who is listed as a linebacker, will play for the National Squad and wear No. 52 in the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl. The game will be played at 6 p.m. on Saturday at the StubHub Center in Carson, Calif. and will be aired live on ESPN2.

Also, rosters were released yesterday for the Senior Bowl and former UConn defensive tackle Shamar Stephen will play for the North squad and will wear the familiar No. 59. The game will be played on Jan. 25 at 4 p.m. at Ladd-Peeples Stadium in Mobile, Ala. and will air on the NFL Network.
