Former Miami Hurricanes cornerback Daryl Porter Jr. is getting another NFL shot, and this one comes with a familiar black-and-gold uniform. The Pittsburgh Steelers announced Wednesday they signed Porter to their 16-man practice squad, a move that keeps the South Florida native in the building after he was among the team’s final cuts earlier in the week.
