08/11/22 - CB *Joey Porter Jr., Jr/2023, Penn State

Penn State hasn't had many cornerbacks like Joey Porter Jr. Few possess his raw talent. Even fewer are built like him. Porter is already a 2023 first-round projection in several mock drafts. The North Allegheny grad, the son of Pittsburgh Steelers great Joey Porter, was a third-team All-Big Ten pick by the conference's coaches last season. But there were a couple of issues with penalties in 2021, and Porter's overall play sometimes gets overlooked as a result. Still, Penn State veteran cornerbacks coach Terry Smith knows what he has in the 198-pound Porter, who is entering his fourth season with the Nittany Lions.

From a physical standpoint, Smith said there is only one former Lion - a good one - who is comparable to Porters: Amani Oruwariye, one of the top young corners in the NFL. He was a first-team All-Big Ten choice in 2018. "Amani's having such a great career with the Detroit Lions," Smith said. "Amani's built similar to (Porter). Amani probably has a lot of what Joey has, (but) Joey has more speed. Amani wasn't as fast, but those two guys are probably the most comparable in my mind, of guys I've coached because of their length. "Joey's kind of exceptional with his speed, athleticism, that combination he has. He's 6-3. His arms are 35 inches. That's the longest on the team - D-ends, O-linemen, everyone. And so you put that out on the perimeter, it's tough on receivers to get separation. We're excited about him." - Tribune Review
