The Joey Porter Jr. scam?

[RonWashington]

Is the Joey Porter scam like the Alan Parsons project ?

 

[visionary]

Why even trade for a guy who wants a new contract before having that contract worked out. It’s such a stupid way of doing business.

Because we have a moron for a GM

I'm a pretty big skeptic, cynic and absurdist and even I don't buy this theory.

It's funny, though. Haha!

Troll alert. Check before posting trash. Pickens will play against GB.

So will Lamb I hope. We're not talking about our WRs.

The Big Mike Pettine aquisition has bolstered ALL the players enthusiasm.

Ergo.....Porter will play

You need to be on an NFL team's active, inactive, Injured Reserve (IR), or Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list for 6 games to obtain an accrued season in the NFL.

Scam Porter Jr knows this. This is why he has faked a back injury, an illness and now an ankle injury. After this week he will have fully accrued enough time this season to be an unrestricted FA at the end of the year. He can just go home for the rest of the season and not have to keep doing this charade anymore.

The Cowboys got played, even worse than the Steelers got played. The question is tho, what team will be stupid enough to offer him a contract next year?

I saw this post on Twitter and this guy is full of it. If Porter's plan is to be on a roster for 3 games, or 6 games, then sit out the season it is a terrible plan. Levian Bell tried this a few years back and look what happened to him. Teams are not going to risk big contracts on players who sit out entire seasons. Porter's best option is to play for Dallas and try to negotiate a contract with Jerry Jones. He needs to show he can play at a high level if he wants a contract. No team is going to want a player with a bad attitude and one that will fake injuries when he is disgruntled over money.

It is just a Steelers fan that hates JPJ… and probably Dallas.

Until you see it for yourself then you become the hater

The suspected Porter health subterfuge hasn't happened yet so let's see what Sunday brings against a physical Packers team.

If this is in fact true, I hope Ol Sour face doesn't sign Porter to a new contract. But we just don't know what Ol Sour face will do, Ol Sour face is a hard one to figure out. True Cowboys fans from long ago who love this team, know all about Ol Sour face and his great leadership skills. In closing it sounds like Porter , will be no help to this defense at all. But it's early yet, we will soon see.

Vomiting all over the locker room was a brilliant part of the ploy...

 

[My3Sons]

This theory is dumb. He is in a contract year. Constantly being injured is bad when you are trying to get paid.

Now, I am in for the argument we should have worked an extension to make this deal for a second round pick.

Who comes up with these stories about fake illness or fake injuries? Who?

 

[ShortRound]

This guy

 

[Carson]

This guy

Just stay home. We know you aren’t playing

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

This guy

Are you freaking kidding me?

Are you freaking kidding me?

Kind of hilarious expecting a guy sitting out for a contract was going to play without a contract
