The Indianapolis Colts selected Marshall cornerback Micah Abraham with the No. 201 pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

After trading back in the fifth round with the Philadelphia Eagles, the Colts picked up this pick in the sixth round. This was after the Colts gave up their original sixth-round pick (No. 191) in the trade-up for offensive lineman Matt Goncalves in the third round.

Abraham is the second defensive back the Colts took in a row after adding nickel defender and free safety Jaylin Simpson in the fifth round.

A fifth-year senior, Abraham measured in at 5-foot-9 and 185 pounds with 30 3/4-inch arms at Marshall's pro day. He ran a 4.43 in the 40-yard dash.

Though he had an offer from Boston College, he decided to go to Marshall. He has incredible ball skills with 55 passes defensed and 12 interceptions throughout his collegiate career—62 games and 46 starts.

Due to his size, Abraham is likely competing for the backup slot role with Chris Lammons behind starter Kenny Moore II.
