Steelers injury update: Latest news on CB Joey Porter Jr. for Week 13

Pittsburgh Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. (hip) received an injury update ahead of the Week 13 matchup against the Buffalo Bills.

While Porter was limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday, he was upgraded to a full participant on Friday, and he isn't carrying an injury designation heading into Week 13 — a major boost for a secondary preparing to face off against the Bills' Josh Allen-led passing attack.

Through eight games this season, Porter has recorded one interception and 11 passes defended, continuing to standout in his third year in the NFL.

Along with Porter, several Steelers dealing with injuries — Aaron Rodgers (left wrist), DK Metcalf (ankle), Alex Highsmith (pectoral), and Ben Skowronek (shoulder) — will also play against the Bills in a pivotal Week 13 matchup.
