Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr is ready for the challenge of covering WR Terry McLaurin

Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Joey Porter Jr has proven himself to be the lockdown defensive back of the present and the future in Pittsburgh. He has allowed just 20 receptions in eight games thus far on 313 coverage snaps, per PFF. The Steelers pass defense as a whole ranks eighth in EPA per dropback in large part due to the efforts of Porter, as well as Donte Jackson the rest of the secondary.

Pittsburgh will face their toughest test of the season up to this point on Sunday when they travel to Landover, MD to face the Washington Commanders and the dynamic duo of rookie sensation Jayden Daniels and star receiver Terry McLaurin.
