As the Dragons head to the second round of playoffs, they can rest easy knowing they have Benecio Porras on their side. The junior linebacker continues to shine for the defense and recorded an impressive 15 tackles last week during the game against Haltom.
This season, Porras has logged 85 tackles — second only to fellow linebacker Baker Barrett with 86 tackles. These numbers don’t even account for Porras’ other defensive feats.
Within his 85 tackles, the junior recorded seven for losses, made a sack and has caused two fumbles this season. His drive on defense coupled with his talent is why Benecio Porras is our Dragon Pride Player of the Week, sponsored by Thomas & Sharon Michael | DFW Elite Realty.
