Episode Details

Steelers’ massive $100M deal for backup linebacker Nick Herbig just threw a wrench into cornerback Joey Porter Jr.’s contract talks—sending a loud message that Pittsburgh’s willing to spend big on young talent, even if it’s not him. With Herbig’s payday now on the table, Porter’s agent has a new benchmark, and the Steelers must convince him he’s worth more than the $25M average he might be seeing as a baseline. Kirwan warns: locking in Porter first would’ve smoothed things over. Now, Porter’s got proof the team’s got deep pockets—and he’s not about to settle for less.
