Bryan DeArdo· Sep 20, 2026
DeArdo suggests that if the Steelers do move Joey Porter Jr. before the Nov. 10 trade deadline, the Lions are a plausible destination given their early-season defensive struggles.
“The Lions, for example, could be a potential landing spot for Porter after they allowed 71 points during their first two games.”

Joey Porter Jr. to move to Detroit Lions
