Jonathan Kabeya makes his season debut on the depth chart
BYU cornerback Jonathan Kabeya is back on the depth chart for the first time in the 2025 season.
The sophomore out of Euless, Texas, was projected to be the starter at NICKEL entering the year, before he suffered an injury in fall camp.
Kabeya went through pregame warmups for the first time this year at Arizona, but ultimately didn’t play.
He’s listed as second-string NICKEL along with San Diego State transfer Tayvion Beasley.
The starting NICKEL, Tommy Prassas, has missed the past two games.
