Will Joey Porter Jr. fare better against Tee Higgins in this rematch?
The last time the Steelers played the Bengals CB Joey Porter Jr. had a day against Tee Higgins. A long day, that is, and full of laundry. The officiating crew flagged Porter half a dozen times with defensive holding or pass-interference infractions.
In that game, Tee Higgins caught five passes for 69 yards and a touchdown. According to Pro Football Focus, none of those catches came against Joey Porter Jr. as the primary defender, however. He picked up 31 yards on one catch, for example, against Damontae Kazee.
