Philip Rivers, fresh out of retirement, has given Pittsburgh Steelers and NFL fans everywhere something to ponder: Who are the recently retired vets who could come back and give us a hand?
One name Steelers fans can cross off is Joey Porter, Sr., who retired in 2011 but is just four years older than Rivers. Porter learned in real time that Rivers had signed with the Indianapolis Colts on Cam Heyward’s Not Just Football podcast. Heyward posed the question to Porter if he’d come back, and Porter's response was the same as you’d expect from most former players.
