The Pittsburgh Steelers have agreed to trade cornerback Joey Porter Jr. to the Dallas Cowboys in exchange for a 2027 sixth-round draft pick and a 2028 second-round pick, sources confirmed Wednesday night.
The trade sends Porter, a cornerback on Pittsburgh's roster, to Dallas as the Cowboys look to add depth to their secondary. In return, the Steelers receive future draft capital rather than an immediate roster contributor.
Draft return for Pittsburgh
The 2028 second-round pick represents the more significant asset in the deal, giving Pittsburgh a chance to add a potential starter in a future draft class, while the 2027 sixth-round pick offers additional, lower-cost depth.
The move is among several trades made across the league ahead of the Nov. 10 deadline, as teams continue to adjust their rosters.
