Joey Porter is one of the best pass rushers in Pittsburgh Steelers history. He helped the Steelers capture a Super Bowl title during the 2005 season and then became a coach for them for a few years. Now, his son, Joey Porter Jr., is the Steelers’ No. 1 corner. Before the team’s game against the New York Giants in Week 8 this year, Porter Sr. came onto the field and led the Terrible Towel Twirl, and it seems like Porter Jr. had no idea he was going to do that.

“That’s when I was surprised. when I seen his face on the screen,” Porter said Monday via the team’s YouTube channel.
