When the Pittsburgh Steelers selected CB Joey Porter Jr. in the draft this spring, he arrived with much fanfare. Son of Steelers legend Joey Porter Sr., Porter Jr. was always going to be welcomed to open arms by the fanbase. But, Porter Jr. can’t rest on his father’s legacy, he has to make his own, and so far in training camp he is impressing head coach Mike Tomlin.
Tomlin spoke with the media today, which was posted to Steelers.com, after practice and he is a big fan of Porter’s attitude early in camp.
“He’s ready and able,” Tomlin said about Porter receiving a lot off reps early on.
