Paul Porras brings veteran instincts and tackle production to Rice’s secondary
Paul Porras is a proven, high-mileage safety for Rice whose value comes from consistency, instincts, and run support: ESPN lists him with 188 solo tackles, 5 interceptions, and 3 forced fumbles, while Rice notes he was a three-year starter at the KAT position and made 38 consecutive starts. He stands out less for flash than for reliability, toughness, and positional versatility, which makes him the kind of defensive back coaches trust in big situations. If your team wants a steady, experienced safety who shows up snap after snap, he fits the profile.
