Steelers' Joey Porter: Maintains big role in second season
Porter totaled 70 tackles (53 solo) and seven pass defenses, including an interception, over 16 regular-season contests in 2024.
Porter solidified a starting role in his second year as a pro, playing at least 95 percent of Pittsburgh's defensive snaps in 15 of his 16 games, with the exception being a Week 16 loss to Baltimore during which he suffered a calf injury. The Penn State product improved upon his rookie numbers in tackles but had three fewer defensed passes. Porter should enter 2025 as a locked-in starter in what will be the third year of his rookie contract.

Steelers' Joey Porter: Will play against Cincinnati
Porter (knee) carries no injury designation into Saturday's regular-season finale against the Bengals, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Porter was unable to play against the Chiefs on Christmas Day due to a knee injury, but he'll be good to go for Saturday's AFC North showdown after ending the week with consecutive limited practices. In his seven games since the Steelers' Week 9 bye, Porter has logged 31 tackles (25 solo) and three pass defenses. Porter's return is timely, as Donte Jackson is listed as questionable due to a back injury.

Steelers' Joey Porter: Could return for Week 18
Head coach Mike Tomlin said Monday that Porter (knee) is "scheduled to make it back" for the Steelers' regular-season finale against the Bengals on Saturday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.
Porter was sidelined for the Steelers' 29-10 loss to the Chiefs on Christmas Day due to a knee injury he suffered against the Ravens in Week 16. It appears that the 2023 second-round pick is on track to return for Pittsburgh's regular-season finale, and his practice participation over the coming week will be worth monitoring. Porter's return would help bolster a Steelers secondary that will be tasked with slowing down the formidable pass-catching duo of Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins on Saturday.

Steelers' Joey Porter: On track to return Saturday
Porter (knee) was a full participant in practice Tuesday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Porter sat out last Wednesday's Week 17 loss to the Chiefs, but head coach Mike Tomlin indicated Monday that the second-year cornerback is expected to return to the field Saturday for the team's regular-season finale. Barring a setback in the final two practices of the week, that should be the case, as Porter was able to participate without limitations Tuesday. His return would likely send Cory Trice or Cameron Sutton to a rotational role.
