Cory Trice Jr. And Joey Porter Jr.’s Length ‘Definitely’ Gives Them An Advantage, Allen Robinson II Says

A lot of the attention during Pittsburgh Steelers OTAs has been on rookie cornerbacks Joey Porter Jr. and Cory Trice Jr. The two lengthy cornerbacks have garnered a lot of praise so far, and Allen Robinson II said the addition of the two also makes the wide receiver room better.

“They’re competitors, they’re long-arm corners, whenever you have that in this league, that definitely gives you an advantage,” Robinson said during an interview with Missi Matthews on Steelers.com. Being able to go against those guys in the red zone, things like that. It’s hard to complete some of those tight windows throws against longer corners.
