Travaunta Abner is Alabama A&M’s matchup-challenging TE1 with all-conference buzz
In the 2025 season, Travaunta Abner was a first-team All-SWAC tight end and an HBCU All-American after posting 35 catches for 380 yards and 3 touchdowns, plus a season-high 9 catches for 102 yards against Bethune-Cookman[1][2][10]. What makes him intriguing is that he’s not just a big-body target at 6-foot-2 and 249 pounds — he was described as someone who can run routes like a receiver and create separation, which gives Alabama A&M a flexible middle-field weapon[8][12]. He also showed clutch value with a 21-yard game-sealing catch against Tennessee State, so he looks like a reliable fit if your offense wants a tight end who can move chains, not just block and sit pretty[1][6].
