NFL.com Outlines Opposite Scenarios For Joey Porter Jr.’s Rookie Season

Pittsburgh Steelers rookie cornerback Joey Porter Jr. has impressed thus far in preseason and training camp, intercepting a pass in his first preseason game and generally looking like a really solid pick at the top of the second round. NFL Media draft analyst Chad Reuter recently laid out the best- and worst-case scenario for Porter’s rookie season, while projecting him to finish with 40 tackles and two interceptions.

For the best-case scenario, Reuter said that Porter could be a guy to force turnovers for the Steelers.

“Porter rotates with mentor Patrick Peterson to keep both fresh throughout the year,” he wrote.
