Corry urges Steelers to break policy for Porter Jr. as trade rumors intensify
Former NFL agent Joel Corry advised the Pittsburgh Steelers to abandon their strict no-negotiation policy to resolve the contract standoff with cornerback Joey Porter Jr. Porter has missed the first three games of the 2026 season due to a back injury and a failed extension negotiation. While GM Omar Khan reaffirmed the team's stance, Corry warned that the impasse could lead to a mid-season trade, citing historical precedents. The situation remains unresolved as Porter was ruled out for the Week 4 game against the Cleveland Browns.
