Abernathy has good speed for his size and very good quickness. He can run with power, surprising elusiveness and very good athleticism. Abernathy hits the hole hard and is best between the tackles, at times running with great authority. He also shows good hands out of the backfield and is very dangerous in space, showing ability to run away from the defense.
