Looking like a bionic man on the field, Whitfield was a full-out bully on the field Friday. His arm is in a cast from his injury, but he brought a serious intensity and physicality that I had not seen from the Thunderbirds this year. Already a key piece, as the anchor of the defensive backfield, Whitfield was hitting like Brian Dawkins and was being as disruptive as Ed Reed for two straight quarters. On two straight plays, he leveled the tight end to drop a pass in the end zone, then gave another receiver a good stick to pop a ball in the air that led to an interception. Whitfield quickly became one of my favorite players with his development through summer, but the resilience and effort he showed coming back from his injury shows he can play at a high level and colleges should take notice.
