He was drafted by the New Orleans Saints in the second round of the 2008 NFL Draft.
On March 5, 2008, Porter participated at Indiana's pro day and chose to run the 40-yard dash (4.38s), 20-yard dash (2.51s), and 10-yard dash (1.46s).

He played in five games during his rookie season before being placed on injured reserve after dislocating his wrist.
Porter is best known for being a crucial player during the 2009 New Orleans Saints season, in which he intercepted Brett Favre in the NFC Championship Game and then won Super Bowl XLIV, sealing the game by famously intercepting Peyton Manning and returning it for a touchdown.
He played college football at Indiana.
Porter also played for the Denver Broncos, Oakland Raiders, Washington Redskins, and Chicago Bears.
Porter attended Port Allen High School, where he played quarterback, running back, wide receiver, and cornerback.
He earned first team All-District 3A honors in his first year of organized football as a junior and second-team as a senior after recording 93 tackles, 11 interceptions (two returned for touchdowns) and 14 pass breakups.
He also returned two punts and two kickoffs each for touchdowns, averaging 47.0 yards per kick return and 28.0 per punt return.

Midway through the fourth quarter of the NFC Championship game on January 24, 2010, with the Minnesota Vikings already in the red zone and driving towards a score, Porter punched the ball out of the hands of Vikings wide receiver Bernard Berrian; the fumble was recovered by the Saints.

Late in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl XLIV against the Indianapolis Colts with the Colts in Saints' territory, Porter jumped Colts wide receiver Reggie Wayne's route and intercepted Peyton Manning's pass, returning it 74-yards for a touchdown.
The score ended the Colts' hopes of a comeback and sealed New Orleans' first Super Bowl victory.
In interviews after the game, Porter credited his pick to film study of the Colts' season.
"I'd seen it over and over -- third down," Porter said.
"That was a big route for them to convert on. Through the numerous amounts of film study that we've done all week in preparing for the Super Bowl... it all happened just like I was watching it on film. I made the break on it, and here comes the end zone."
In the aftermath of the Super Bowl win, Porter was honored by his home town, Port Allen, which first jokingly renamed the city "Porter Allen" for a day in his honor, then later named a street after him.
He ranked as the 12th best cornerback prospect in the draft by DraftScout.com.
