How Much Time Will Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. Miss After Injury Vs. Ravens?

How much time will Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. miss after injuring his knee vs. the Ravens?

Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. went down in the first half with what they initially called a calf injury. After the game, HC Mike Tomlin described the injury as one to the knee, causing referred pain to the calf. He briefly returned in the second half before exiting, and now his status for Wednesday is unclear.

The NFL, of course, is not giving the Steelers much time to prepare for their next game. In order to exploit the financial perks of playing to captive audiences with new broadcast contracts, they have forced their way into a Wednesday this year.
