Whitten is one of the best two-way players in the region, and has tons of varsity playing experience over the years for the Bulldogs. He is one of the main leaders on this Folsom defense, and flies around with violent intentions from the back end, and is a excellent tackler in open space while exploding through contact and bringing a nice thump, especially for his size. He is truly explosive when breaking to the ball, can close quickly in the open field and redirect without giving up ground with natural ball skills/disciplined eyes in zone coverage. He projects as a safety at the next level, and held five offers before shutting down his recruitment and committing to BYU back in October. He is a very nice addition for the Cougars, and should be able to provide immediate special teams support at that level.
