It’s a rotational sound it’s similar to a high pitched whine but my exhaust covers the sound for the most part.
Anyone know what this noise might be?

I can't tell anything from the video but my guess would be a U joint/joints. Does it make a clunking noise when shifting from forward to reverse?
The only reason I’m skeptical of this is because I had changed all my u joints this summer
I cannot hear it. Does it do it while in gear and driving, parked revving the engine, more when turning? Does it go away at a certain speed or RPM? the serpentine belt path is a good place to start with whines.

I've bought u joints and had a bad cap on 1 already. Honestly it almost sounds like you might have a pebble stuck behind a brake pad or behind the dust shield. Been there too!
One of my employees has a GC SRT 8 and he is picking up his Jeep today for the same reason. We could not get the squeak to stop and he finally sent it in for a rotor turn and pads ($$), It happens.

I was literally thinking this too. I can hear it slightly. The sound is at a pitch that blends in with the tire road noise. But it sounds like something is scraping / scuffing. Possibly a caliper or as suggested by this gentleman.
