Last season, Whittaker dominated the NAL, leading the league in total passing yards with an impressive 1,684, averaging 187.1 yards per game, and throwing for 33 touchdowns. His pinpoint accuracy and ability to make clutch plays made him one of the most feared quarterbacks in arena football. With Whittaker back in the fold, the Spartans are poised for a deep playoff run, fueled by one of the best quarterbacks in the game.

A player’s player, Whittaker thrives under pressure and has a knack for staying cool, calm, and collected in the most intense situations. He’s the type of player coaches dream of — one who leads by example, responds well to adversity, and rallies his team to perform at their best when it matters most.
With Whittaker’s return, the Spartans have their sights set on nothing less than a championship. The team and fans alike are excited to see him back in action, leading the charge as the Spartans make their push for the playoffs and beyond.
