Former Pittsburgh Steelers CB Patrick Peterson watched Joey Porter Jr. take his first steps in the NFL. It didn’t take long for him to see the talent, which he believes could even surpass his at his peak. While Porter isn’t quite there yet, Peterson believes he is one of the reasons the position is in good hands. And he doesn’t mean that simply with the Steelers—he means the state of the cornerback position at large.
“Joey is definitely one of them”, Peterson said on The Insiders on the NFL Network. “I had an opportunity to spend a season with him and watch him grow into what everybody is starting to see him transform into”.
