Porter allegedly believed she was having a relationship with one of his teammates. While at her apartment overnight, he became enraged and allegedly held a gun to her head. After they slept in separate rooms, he confronted her again about the accusations and subsequently fired a gun in her direction as she was standing by the front door.
The woman allegedly denied the charges that she was romantically involved with an unnamed teammate and attempted to contact him for verification.
Porter has two tackles in four games for the Gators. He was a three-star athlete in the class of 2014 according to Rivals.
