Former Florida defensive back Deiondre Porter has been sentenced for an armed robbery in Jacksonville, getting six years in state prison as a youthful offender, according to the Tampa Bay Times.

The one-time Gators player was arrested in connection with an armed robbery of a T-Mobile store in April 2016, with Porter stopped in Louisiana in a car with marijuana and duffel bags of iPhones and iPads that were reported stolen in the robbery in Jacksonville a day earlier.

Porter was at Florida for a little more than a year. He redshirted in 2014, then played in four games as a special teams ace for the Gators in 2015 before he was arrested and booted from the team for firing a gun at his pregnant girlfriend. That case remains open, with Porter facing four felony charges for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon (two charges), aggravated battery and firing a weapon into a dwelling.

A former three-star quarterback prospect from Tampa, Porter signed with the Gators in 2014 as a defensive back.
