Owen Porter is Marshall’s high-motor, disruptive edge defender with proven big-play production
In his 2022 breakout season, Owen Porter gave Marshall a rare blend of production and versatility: 60 tackles, 15 tackles for loss, 9.5 sacks, two forced fumbles, an interception, and a fumble return touchdown, while also earning a reputation as a defensive leader and special-teams contributor. He followed that with a strong 2024 pro day showing 30 bench reps and a 4.79-second 40-yard dash, reinforcing his power and functional athleticism. Porter’s appeal is his intensity, backfield disruption, and willingness to do the dirty work, which makes him a fit for teams valuing effort, toughness, and short-area burst.[2][11]
