Porter Jr. Returns to Practice as Steelers Await Deal
Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Joey Porter Jr. has been activated from the Active/PUP list and began ramping up for a return to practice, but no contract extension has been offered yet. Porter is hopeful a deal can be reached before the Sept. 13 season opener, while the Steelers’ front office — led by GM Omar Khan — holds the leverage on negotiations. Porter emphasized taking it day by day as he works back with his teammates.
