Penn State redshirt freshman cornerback Joey Porter Jr. was on a Zoom call this morning as part of the Nittany Lions’ virtual media days.

Porter, son of former Steelers linebacker and assistant coach Joey Porter, said he’s just like his dad, only he plays a different position.

Porter also has very interesting things to say about Black Lives Matter, his family and his goals this season on the field.
