Fittipaldo acredita que Joey Porter Jr. pode fazer um 'hold-in' no campo de treinamento

Ray Fittipaldo, do Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, acredita que o cornerback Joey Porter Jr. pode realizar um 'hold-in' quando o campo de treinamento começar. A medida permitiria que o jogador evitasse o risco de lesões enquanto aguarda um novo contrato. Porter entra no último ano de seu contrato de novato com o Pittsburgh Steelers.

Fittipaldo fez os comentários no podcast North Shore Drive. Ele descreveu Porter como um candidato perfeito para um 'hold-in', dado o tamanho do contrato esperado. A abordagem protegeria tanto o jogador quanto a equipe de possíveis lesões durante as negociações, afirmou ele.
