Porter was an impact player on both sides of the ball in McQueen’s 27-20 win over Sloan Canyon in the 4A state championship on Tuesday. The Lancers’ senior LB/TE caught 5 passes for 62 yards and a TD on offense and had a sack and an INT on defense. Porter put together an elite season on both sides of the ball with 11 receiving TDs and 100 tackles, 5.5 sacks, and 24 TFLs on defense.

Porter made an impact on both sides of the ball in McQueen’s 31-16 victory over Reno in the 4A Northern regional championship on Friday. The senior TE/LB totaled 4 catches for 133 yards and 2 TDs on offense and posted 15 total tackles and 2 sacks on defense. Porter continues to establish himself as one of the most effective two-way players northern Nevada has to offer with the combination of physicality and athleticism he brings to both sides of the ball. McQueen will need a a similar performance from Porter when the Lancers face the Sloan Canyon Pirates in the 4A state championship next Tuesday.

Porter is building off his breakout junior campaign with a strong start to his senior season. The 6’/195 two-way senior has 49 total tackles (30 solo), 7 TFLs, and 4 receiving TDs through the first five games. He’s a physical defender with the lateral range and athleticism to get sideline to sideline as an off-ball tackler. Flashes some speed and quickness of the edge and plays with good technique as a read-and-react edge setter. On offense, he offers high-upside ball skills and blocking physicality as a TE/H-back. Porter is one of the most underrated two-way seniors in northern Nevada.
