Joseph A.
Goodson (December 1, 1876 – August 29, 1924) was a college football player and physician.
He was a quarterback for the Vanderbilt Commodores football team; captain of the 1898 team.
Goodson led the team to its first conference title in 1897.
The team then played a contest with Virginia for the championship of the south, a tie.
The Nashville American reported that, "The Vanderbilt players were in a jolly humor yesterday with their miniature football pinned upon the labels of their coats.
Joe Goodson, quarterback, was apparently out of training from a large ten-cent cigar he smoked, a gift of Benjamin Childers of Pulaski.
'Tab' Farrell had his hair cut and other members were more or less changed in appearance."
