Back to EpisodesSteelers Push for Joey Porter Jr. Extension
Description
The Pittsburgh Steelers bolster their secondary with Jamel Dean, Jaquan Brisker, and Darnell Savage. Former Steeler Trai Essex advocates for a long-term deal for standout corner Joey Porter Junior, citing Trent McDuffies recent contract. Porters impressive performance last season, including a PFF coverage grade of 74.1, ranks him 19th among 114 cornerbacks. With one year left on his rookie contract, extending Porter now could save the team money in the long run. The Steelers strategic moves aim to maintain their defensive prowess, with securing Porter as the next logical step.
