Steelers outside linebackers coach Joey Porter had plenty to say to members of the Bengals last Saturday night when he came on the field following wide receiver Antonio Brown’s injury.

Porter’s words sparked a reaction from Bengals cornerback Adam Jones that led to a key penalty and they sparked other negative reactions this week from Bengals players and coaches. Porter’s foray onto the field will reportedly result in a fine from the league, but it appears we won’t be hearing anything from Porter about what went on at Paul Brown Stadium.

Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports that the Steelers have barred the media from talking to Porter this week.

Other than denying that he gave Porter a game ball after the 18-16 victory, Steelers coach Mike Tomlin evaded questions about Porter’s behavior during the game by saying that the team can’t afford to spend time rehashing what happened when they have a game against the Broncos to prepare for this week.
