Show Notes
After declaring for the 2026 NFL Draft, former Northwestern running back Cam Porter joined the Call The Huddle podcast to talk his career so far while he gets ready for the next level of football. Following five full seasons with the Wildcats, Porter entered 2025 as a team captain before losing his season to an ACL tear. The 5-foot-11, 215 pound runner said he's learned he can overcome anything with work, and that he'll carry those lessons into the NFL.
Through six seasons with Northwestern, Porter put together 1,908 rushing yards and 425 through the air along with 19 touchdowns during his time. Porter has proven that he's both talented and difficult to tackle, and has plenty to offer heading into the NFL.
