CB Daryl Porter Jr. Given Minkah Fitzpatrick’s Former Number, Will Wear No. 39

The Pittsburgh Steelers officially signed CB Daryl Porter Jr. on Tuesday to help add depth to a cornerback room dealing with injuries, and he’ll be wearing a number that’s quite familiar to Steelers fans. Per Alex Kozora, Porter Jr. is wearing No. 39, most recently worn by FS Minkah Fitzpatrick, who the Steelers traded away in June to acquire Jalen Ramsey and Jonnu Smith.

Fitzpatrick, now with the Miami Dolphins, is back in the No. 29 that he wore with Miami during his rookie season and during his collegiate career at Alabama. But he donned No.
