句中joke后面的that是什么从句

我查柯林斯英语词典,翻到单词joke,发现这个句子The project was taking so long that Stephen joked that it would never be finished.

joke明显是不及物动词,后不接宾语或宾语从句。请问句中joked后面的that(粗体字)是什么从句?

牛津:joke[intransitive, transitive] to say something that is not true because you think it is funny.

例句:joke that… She joked that she only loved him for his money. 所以that从句是宾语从句。
