About Joey Porter Jr.

Joey Porter Jr. is a cornerback for the Pittsburgh Steelers, wearing jersey number 24 and continuing a proud football legacy in the Steel City. Born on July 26, 2000, in Bakersfield, California, Porter Jr. developed into one of the most physically imposing corners in the game, standing 6'3" and weighing 193 pounds — a rare combination of size and athleticism for the position.
