Bouncer Chronicles reports that former New York Giant Linval Joseph was shot in a Minneapolis, Minnesota night club recently. The Minnesota Vikings released a statement that Joseph was an innocent bystander to the shooting that took place at 400 Soundbar in downtown Minneapolis.

Linval only suffered a minor injury during the shooting when a stray bullet struck him in the calf. According to the Vikings, he was treated by a hospital and expected to return to preseason camp this week.

Joseph signed a 5-year, $31 million dollar contract with Minnesota in March. He spent his first 4 years with the Giants.
