Whyte’s addition to FanDuel comes as the industry uses September to promote responsible gaming education. It is one of the busiest months on the sports betting calendar in the United States in volume and handle as Major League Baseball, NFL, and college football schedules all converge.

“FanDuel has consistently demonstrated industry leading commitment to Responsible Gaming, and I’ve long admired their proactive approach,” Whyte said in a statement. “I’m thrilled to join the team and contribute my experience to further advancing FanDuel’s efforts in promoting safe and responsible play.”

Whyte will be a consultant and provide content for FanDuel’s Trusted Voices: Conversations About Sports Betting program. FanDuel started Trusted Voices last year in partnership with EPIC Global Solutions to “equip trusted adults, including parents, guardians, and coaches, with tools and resources to talk to young people about gambling, associated risks, how to recognize warning signs, and where to go for support.”
