Early life and education
Damon Webb was born on November 25, 1995, in Detroit, Michigan. He played college football at Ohio State University, playing four seasons. He appeared in 35 games during his time with Ohio State, recording 131 tackles, four for a loss, six interceptions and two touchdowns. As a senior, he made five of his six career interceptions, placing second in the Big Ten Conference. In the 2017 Cotton Bowl, the final game of his college career, Webb returned an interception for a touchdown in a win over USC.[1] For his efforts he earned Cotton Bowl MVP honors. He was named third-team All-Big Ten following the year.[2]
Professional career
After going unselected in the 2018 NFL Draft, Webb was signed by the Tennessee Titans as an undrafted free agent.[3] He played in four preseason games with the team, making five tackles and two pass deflections.[2] He was released at roster cuts and re-signed to the practice squad the next day. He spent the whole season with their practice squad, before being released in July 2019.[4]
After going unsigned in 2019, Webb signed a contract with the Saskatchewan Roughriders of the Canadian Football League (CFL) in April 2020.[5] He did not appear in any games during the season, as it was cancelled due to COVID-19. He was re-signed in February 2021.[6] After beginning the season on the practice roster, he was promoted to the active team prior to their week 6 matchup with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.[2] Against the BC Lions two weeks later, he returned a fumble for a touchdown as time expired to seal a 31–24 win.[7]
