Make-or-Break Year for Joey Porter Jr? | Steelers Morning Rush
Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it’s whether the 2025 season is make or break for cornerback Joey Porter Jr.
Porter has had a solid first two seasons as the Steelers’ starting cornerback, and there’s plenty of reason to be optimistic about the player that he’s already become. But there’s also nothing physically stopping him from being one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL.
With his rookie contract set to expire after the 2026 season, this year will be the last chance for Porter to put down tape that he will get paid on. So is this a make-or-break season for the Penn State product? Alan breaks it down.
