LIU freshman DB Chris Whittingham brings size, upside, and a clean slate
Whittingham enters the 2025 season as a 5-foot-11, 194-pound freshman defensive back for LIU, which makes him a developmental piece with a strong frame for the position and room to grow into a reliable depth or rotational role[3][4]. He’s listed on the 2025 roster but does not yet have current-season stats available, so the real appeal is projection: a young DB with the tools to add toughness and coverage flexibility for a program that likes its secondary options interchangeable[4].
