Final Report
Abney was a 2 year starter for the Sundevils who ascended in 2025 to one of the Big 12’s best corners. Abney is a tone setter at corner. When he is in press he is not trying to knock you off your route he is trying to knock you on the ground. In zone he is a good communicator passing off routes and maintaining his discipline. He hits hard as a tackler and forced multiple fumbles in 2025. Abney has short arms and it can affect him at the catch point and closing on the ball. He is tentative times when closing on routes and lacks the foot speed to make up for these mental hesitancies. Abney can survive on the outside which is nice versatility but he is best suited for being a nickel in a zone scheme at the next level. If he learns to trusts his instincts more he is gong to be a good starter on a good team for years to come.
