Joseph Whitt is a depth-chart linebacker with upside as Arkansas builds its 2026 LB room
In the 2025 season, Joseph Whitt was a redshirt freshman who made his collegiate debut against Alabama A&M on Aug. 30 and appeared in one game, so the sample is tiny but the roster sites show he’s now in the Razorbacks’ linebacker mix for 2026. At 6-0 and about 210 pounds, he fits more as a compact, developmental LB than a headline stat monster right now—think role player with room to grow, not finished product. If you want a steady, young defender with a clean runway and no major injury baggage in the available reports, Whitt is a sensible watch-list name.
