Heitritter: Steelers Must Find An Ideal Long-Term Running Mate For Joey Porter Jr. At CB

When the Pittsburgh Steelers drafted Penn State CB Joey Porter Jr. with the first pick in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft, many were hoping that they had secured their CB1 of the future. Through the first five weeks of the season, Porter has given Steelers fans plenty of optimism about his long-term future with the team, grading out as one of the best rookies in the league by Pro Football Focus. Porter has allowed just one reception for 12 yards on seven targets, adding a key interception against the Ravens and a pass breakup on the season.
