Amateur career
He played college football for the Santa Monica Corsairs and Canadian Junior College Football for the Big Kahuna Rams.[1]
Professional career
He was signed by the BC Lions as a territorial exemption in 2007. Whyte was traded to the Montreal Alouettes on the 2011 draft day on May 8, 2011 after the Lions drafted punter Hugh O'Neill.[2]
In 2019, he was the unanimous selection for Edmonton Eskimos Most Outstanding Special Teams Player.[3]
gollark: It's not even that, they just entirely ignore the license saying they have to.
gollark: That is not what I'm talking about and I'm not aware of that happening.
gollark: That's currently all I have to say about Android opensourceness. I might come up with more later.
gollark: Banking apps use this for """security""", mostly, as well as a bunch of other ones because they can.
gollark: Google has a thing called "SafetyNet" which allows apps to refuse to run on unlocked devices. You might think "well, surely you could just patch apps to not check, or make a fake SafetyNet always say yes". And this does work in some cases, but SafetyNet also uploads lots of data about your device to Google servers and has *them* run some proprietary ineffable checks on it and give a cryptographically signed attestation saying "yes, this is an Approved™ device" or "no, it is not", which the app's backend can check regardless of what your device does.
