Steelers' Joey Porter: Ready to rock
Porter (elbow) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Porter was able to upgrade to a full participant Friday, just a day after sustaining an elbow injury. The starting cornerback is set to suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup alongside fellow starter James Pierre, who was also cleared of injury designation. With both outside corners healthy, it remains to be seen how the Steelers plan to use recently acquired Asante Samuel.

Steelers' Joey Porter: Limited with elbow issue
Porter (elbow) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Porter appeared on the injury report Thursday with an elbow injury, but he was still able to log a limited session. The ability to practice with a new injury bodes well for the starting cornerback's chances to suit up for Sunday's divisional contest with the Ravens. If the 2023 second-rounder is ultimately unable to suit up versus Baltimore, however, the recently signed Asante Samuel will likely take over at outside cornerback.

Steelers' Joey Porter: Cleared to play Week 13
Porter (hip) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Bills, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Porter missed some practice time with the injury this week after he was injured in last Sunday's loss to the Bears, but the cornerback is good to go for the Week 13 date with Buffalo. Porter has recorded 28 tackles (20 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and 11 pass breakups, including one interception, across eight appearances this season.

Steelers' Joey Porter: Limited in practice
Porter (hip) was a limited participant in Pittsburgh's practice Wednesday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN reports.
Porter's status comes as no surprise, as Mike Tomlin previously announced he would be limited in practice throughout the week. However, the 25-year-old is still expected to be good to go for Sunday's game versus Buffalo.

Steelers' Joey Porter: Will be limited by hip
Coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that Porter (hip) will be limited in practice this week, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.
Porter was forced from Sunday's loss to the Bears with the injury, but it doesn't sound like it's an overly serious issue for the star cornerback. Darius Slay and James Pierre would likely handle cornerback duties for Pittsburgh if Porter needs to miss any game action.

Steelers' Joey Porter: Questionable to return Sunday
Porter (hip) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bears, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.
The cornerback made three tackles (two solo) before exiting. James Pierre should be the next man up at corner for the Steelers.

Steelers' Joey Porter: Another muted outing
Porter posted three tackles (one solo) and one pass defense during the Steelers' 34-12 win over the Bengals on Sunday.
Sunday was an improved outing for Porter (from a fantasy perspective) compared to his zero-tackle performance against the Chargers in Week 10. He's logged three tackles or less in three of his last four games, but he's also recorded at least one pass defense in each of the Steelers' six games since the Week 5 bye. Over that span, Porter has posted 24 tackles (17 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and 11 pass defenses (one interception).

Steelers' Joey Porter: Quiet night in Week 10 loss
Porter logged zero tackles and a pass defense during the Steelers' 25-10 loss to the Chargers on Sunday.
Sunday marked the first time since Week 18 of the 2023 season that Porter failed to record a tackle. The third-year corner has 22 tackles (17 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and 10 pass defenses (one interception) through six regular-season games.

Steelers' Joey Porter: Logs sack, interception in Week 9
Porter logged eight tackles (six solo), including 1.0 sacks, and four pass defenses (one interception) during the Steelers' 27-20 win over the Colts on Sunday.
It was a busy day for Porter, whose eight stops were second most on the Steelers behind Payton Wilson (14). Porter was credited with the first sack of his NFL career early in the third quarter, and he helped the Steelers seal the victory late in the fourth quarter, when he picked off an overthrown pass from Daniel Jones intended for Alec Pierce. Porter has logged 21 tackles (16 solo) and nine pass defenses in the four games since Pittsburgh's Week 5 bye.

Steelers' Joey Porter: Healthy coming off bye
Porter (hamstring) practiced in full Wednesday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Porter hasn't suited up for a regular-season game since Week 1, but he appears to have emerged from Pittsburgh's bye in Week 5 fully healthy. The starting cornerback looks set to return to the lineup Sunday against the Browns. That will provide a notable boost for the Steelers' secondary, especially if Jalen Ramsey (hamstring), who is not practicing Wednesday, is unable to play or has his snaps managed.

Steelers' Joey Porter: Sitting out in Ireland
Porter (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Vikings in Dublin, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Porter will miss his third straight game due to the hamstring injury, which had limited him in practice throughout Week 4 prep. With Porter sidelined again, the Steelers will likely go with Brandin Echols as their slot cornerback, while Jalen Ramsey and Darius Slay serve as Pittsburgh's primary options on the outside.
