Then I'd cut out all the rot, leaving only 100% solid wood, and run TWO replacement joists, one nailed and glued on each side of the rotted ones, with 2' of overlap, so it goes from solid original joist, to triple joist, to double joist at the end. If it's only rotted for a few feet at the end, materials for the double reinforcement shouldn't cost much.
