Raiders Sign Rookie Darien Porter
Per the team, the Las Vegas Raiders have signed third-round rookie defensive back Darien Porter to an undisclosed contract. The Iowa State alum played six seasons with the team, but put up his best numbers in 2024 -- notching 18 tackles and three interceptions in 12 games. Although Porter was a one-year starter, he possesses elite athleticism and is a savvy special-teams player, positioning him to make an immediate impact on the field. While some seasoning on the defensive side of the ball is still required, his innate physical gifts should help to mitigate some of his faults. If everything breaks right for the 6-foot-3 DB, he could settle in nicely as a second or third cornerback. For now, look for him to get his start on special teams. Porter is listed second on the team's unofficial depth chart behind defensive back Eric Stokes.
