Following his first full season with Rimouski Océanic he was awarded the Raymond Lagacé Trophy as the QMJHL Defensive Rookie of the Year and was also named to the 2012–13 QMJHL All-Rookie Team. On April 19, 2014, the Dallas Stars of the National Hockey League signed Desrosiers to three-year entry-level contract, but he was returned to the Rimouski Océanic for the 2014–15 QMJHL season where, in his final year of major junior hockey, he was recognized for his outstanding play when he posted the QMJHL Best GAA of 2.50 to win the Jacques Plante Memorial Trophy and was selected as the 2014–15 CHL Goaltender of the Year.

He was signed to a one-year, two-way contract with the Florida Panthers on July 2, 2019. He was assigned to AHL affiliate, the Springfield Thunderbirds for the 2019–20 season, appearing in 29 regular season games and posting a 16-10-2 record, before signing a one-year contract extension with the Panthers on October 15, 2020.
In the following pandemic delayed 2020–21 season, Desrosiers spent the entirety of the year on the Panthers extended taxi squad, without featuring in a game.
As a free agent from the Panthers, Desrosiers opted to continue his career in the AHL by agreeing to a one-year contract with the Manitoba Moose, the primary affiliate to the Winnipeg Jets, on August 17, 2021. On March 19, 2022, Desrosiers signed a one year, two-way contract with the Winnipeg Jets.
