Cowboys trade for Joey Porter Jr. sparks debate over fit and readiness
Shows discuss Dallas acquiring Joey Porter Jr. from Pittsburgh, with Ross Tucker noting the Cowboys sent a 2nd and 6th round pick for him.[1]

Ross Tucker said Porter was pretty effective for Dallas after his time off, while Jason Whitlock called him another clown and described Jerry Jones as desperate.[5][6]
