Penn State’s star cornerback played 275 coverage snaps for the Nittany Lions in 2022, and didn’t allow a single touchdown (according to Pro Football Focus).

With an ideal blend of size, length, and athleticism, as well as the same competitiveness and physical playing style that made his dad a Pro Bowl defender in the NFL, Porter should be one of the first players off the board at his position in the 2023 NFL draft.

It’s still a wild fact that Penn State has never had a defensive back drafted in the first round, but Porter should easily become the first.
