Porter Jr. Contract Reality Check | Pittsburgh Steelers News

Joey Porter Jr. might not be heading to the top of the cornerback pay scale after all—despite rumors swirling about a potential $34M contract. Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo says expect closer to $28M, with an initial offer around $25M, citing that Porter, though promising and just 26, hasn’t yet earned Pro Bowl or All-Pro honors—the usual benchmark for elite contracts. While he’s got solid stats and could still draw interest from teams willing to trade up for him, Fittipaldo doubts any team will pony up for the sky-high number. Still, even at $28M, Porter would land among the league’s best-paid corners. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
