Joey Porter Jr. ‘Didn’t Like’ PI Call Against Him In Texans Game, But Still Working On Issue

When the Pittsburgh Steelers drafted Joey Porter Jr. last year, it felt like fate. Now, Porter is being looked at as the team’s next lockdown corner. This year will be a big test for him, but he may need to work on drawing fewer penalties before he can truly take the next step. Coming out of college, one of the biggest knocks against Porter was that he was too grabby and handsy. Last year, that problem was still evident, and in the Steelers’ first preseason game, it showed up once again. It sounds like Porter doesn’t agree that he should have been flagged for pass interference against the Texans.
