Brathwaite previously committed to FIU on Monday, just four days ago, before taking his official visit to Arkansas this weekend. It appears his visit went very well as the Razorback coaching staff snagged their 17th transfer commitment of the off-season immediately following Brathwaite’s visit.
The sixth-year senior will have one season of eligibility after beginning his college career with Western Kentucky back in 2018. Brathwaite has appeared in 48 games for the Hilltoppers and actually played in Fayetteville during Chad Morris’ final game as Arkansas head coach in 2019.
In 2022, he logged 141 snaps at safety and recorded 15 tackles and one interception. For his career, Brathwaite has tallied 99 tackles, four tackles for loss, a sack, two interceptions, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery for a touchdown.
Brathwaite joins Alfahiym Walcott (Baylor), Lorando “Snaxx” Johnson (Baylor) and Jaheim Singletary (Georgia) as newcomers to the Razorback secondary for next season.
