No longer a rookie with plenty of experience under his belt, Joey Porter Jr. will act a little differently his sophomore year. He’ll look a little different, too. Speaking with reporters Wednesday following a long offseason, Porter said he’s gained five pounds to make him stronger ahead of the 2024 season.

“I feel being at 205, I can be more physical in the run game, more physical on the line,” Porter said via The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review’s Chris Adamski. “That’s what I’m shooting for.”

Exiting Penn State prior to the 2023 NFL Draft, Porter weighed in at 193 pounds.
