Giovanni Cardenas is a developmental kicker with clear upside for Abilene Christian
Giovanni Cardenas profiles as a promising, still-developing specialist for Abilene Christian, with recruiting evaluations praising his leg strength, kickoff distance, and charting upside; Kohl’s notes he graded as a 4-star kicker in camp work and highlighted a 55-yard kickoff with 3.53 seconds of hang time in 2025 camp notes. The appeal here is projection: if you want a kicker with raw tools, room to grow, and a strong trajectory, he’s a solid fit—but the stat sheet alone won’t tell the whole story yet.
