Lions Eye Joey Porter Jr Trade | Detroit Lions News

The Detroit Lions are confident in their cornerback corps despite losing Terrion Arnold, but critics like Ronnie Martin say the pass defense still needs a major upgrade—and he’s got a bold solution: trade for Joey Porter Jr. The Steelers’ rookie star has been unstoppable since Week 8, hasn’t allowed a touchdown all season, and is holding out for a massive deal. With Pittsburgh refusing to budge and contract talks stalled, Porter may even skip Week 1 if no deal happens. A potential trade would demand a first-round pick and a contract worth over $130 million—making him one of the highest-paid corners in the league. The Lions might be willing to shell out that kind of cash to fix their secondary, but it’s a huge gamble with serious financial stakes.
