Before the start of each season, you have those preseason lists of players to keep an eye on during the season, and so far Penn State Football has been making a lot of noise on a lot of the preseason watch lists.
On Friday, ESPN College Gameday host Reece Davis posted his Preseason All-American list, and the Nittany Lions garnered recognition.

For the 2022 season, Porter Jr is on the following watch lists:
Bednarik Award
