2024 Fantasy Outlook
Porter was a second-round pick by the Steelers last year and showed some promise, appearing in all 17 games and totaling 43 tackles (32 solo), an interception and 10 pass defenses. He was on the field for at least 90 percent of the defensive snaps in each of the final 10 games of the regular season, and he should enter the 2024 campaign as Pittsburgh's top option at cornerback after Patrick Peterson was let go during the offseason. Read Past Outlooks
Maintains big role in second season
Porter totaled 70 tackles (53 solo) and seven pass defenses, including an interception, over 16 regular-season contests in 2024.
ANALYSIS
Porter solidified a starting role in his second year as a pro, playing at least 95 percent of Pittsburgh's defensive snaps in 15 of his 16 games, with the exception being a Week 16 loss to Baltimore during which he suffered a calf injury. The Penn State product improved upon his rookie numbers in tackles but had three fewer defensed passes. Porter should enter 2025 as a locked-in starter in what will be the third year of his rookie contract.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Porter played at Penn State for four years and tallied 77 tackles (60 solo), an interception and 15 pass defenses over his final two collegiate seasons. The 6-3, 193-pounder faced some concerns about his ability to cover downfield without drawing the attention of the refs while with the Nittany Lions, but in the Steelers' scheme, he'll likely have his tasks fine-tuned to his strengths such that it should be a close to an ideal fit. Porter should compete for a starting role ahead of the coming season and his talent makes him an intriguing secondary piece as a rookie.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Confident entering second year
Porter believes he is the best cornerback in the league, Eric Edholm of NFL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Porter was asked to name the best corners in the league and began with himself, before also listing the likes of Sauce Gardner, Patrick Surtain, Jaire Alexander and Denzel Ward. Porter's logic was based on the strength of his assignments, as he was consistently tasked with shadowing the opposing team's top wide receiver as a rookie. His claim would certainly be debated by most, but he'll enter his sophomore year with confidence -- a key for playing his position.
