Second-year CB Joey Porter Jr. had an issue at the start of his rookie season, at least once he played. It took him some time to work into the lineup, but while his coverage was sound, he was missing tackles. The son of Peezy certainly can’t go to his father’s team and chuck himself around like that. Joey Porter Sr. had to make sure they nipped that in the bud.
But it’s not quite as simple as ol’ dad showing the young whippersnapper how it’s done. While Porter once again affirmed the story of his dad being upset with his tackling, he didn’t need that motivation.
