Texas Native Daemon Torres played in Major League Rugby between 2021-2024. He represented Rugby ATL from 2021-2023 until the RATLers relocation to LA, and the Dallas Jackals in 2024.

Torres earned 6 MLR caps in his debut MLR season including 2 starts, and totalled 30 MLR caps (16 starts) across his 3 seasons with Atlanta. He scored 3 tries for the RATLers and they all came in the 2022 season, the same year where Torres earned his 2 MLR Team of the Week selections, in back-to-back weeks for Round 16 & 17.

Shortly after the conclusion of the 2023 MLR season, and following the news that Rugby ATL had changed ownership and was relocating to Los Angeles for the 2024 season as essentially a new franchise, Daemon Torres elected to move to his home state of Texas rather than follow the team to the west coast and signed with the Dallas Jackals on September 26, 2023, where he enjoyed the most effective MLR season of his career. Torres appeared in all but one of the Jackals games in 2024, including their stunning Western Conference Semifinals victory over the #1 ranked Houston SaberCats, as well as their nailbiting Western Conference Final against the Seattle Seawolves. Torres scored 4 of his 7 career MLR tries for the Jackals.

On 13th September 2024, Torres announced his retirement on his instagram, at the age of 27.
