Forgotten Patriots Defensive Player is ‘Really Good’ Again
Matthew Judon is back to his old self for the New England Patriots
After a down year in 2021, Judon has rebounded in a big way in 2022
Matthew Judon is back to his old self for the New England Patriots.
The 30-year-old defensive end had a down year in 2021, recording just 5.5 sacks after signing a four-year, $56 million contract with the Patriots in free agency.
But Judon has rebounded in a big way in 2022, and is once again one of the most productive pass rushers in the NFL.
- Judon leads the Patriots with 13 sacks, which is tied for fourth in the NFL.
- He also has 25 quarterback hits, which is second in the NFL.
- Judon has been a key part of a Patriots defense that has allowed the fewest points in the NFL this season.
Judon's resurgence has been a major factor in the Patriots' success this season.
The Patriots are 10-4 and currently lead the AFC East.
They are also one of the favorites to win the Super Bowl this season.
Judon's performance has also helped him earn a Pro Bowl selection.
It is the third Pro Bowl selection of Judon's career.
Judon is a big reason why the Patriots are one of the best teams in the NFL.
He is a force on the defensive line, and he is a key part of the Patriots' success.
