In various press interviews, Abrams stated that he chose the Bulldogs because they offer the best opportunity for him to play at a professional level after college and meet his expectations.
He began playing football in the eighth grade, starting as a receiver on the junior varsity team during his first year at McDonogh.
He transitioned to varsity and became a linebacker in his sophomore season in 2023.
Additionally, Abrams will serve as a captain for the Eagles in the Maryland Interscholastic Athletic Association (MIAA) conference championship games.
