Jude has been a problem off the edge, putting together 8.5 sacks, 16 pressures, 8 tackles for loss, and 3 forced fumbles. He gets off the ball with purpose and does a good job turning speed into pressure once he gets around the corner. Jude shows the ability to collapse the pocket and finish plays when he gets within range of the quarterback. His production also shows up against the run, where he can get into the backfield and disrupt plays before they have time to develop.

Jude is heading into the season with a clear mindset: earn respect and establish his name through consistent play and impact on defense.

On film, Jude shows a player who competes with steady energy and doesn’t shy away from physical moments. He stays active throughout the play, working through contact and continuing to pursue even when the initial action moves away from him. That effort level is a big part of what keeps him involved snap after snap.

What stands out is his ability to stay around the football. Jude has a habit of showing up late in plays—cleaning things up, finishing tackles, and staying engaged until the whistle. That persistence makes him a dependable presence in the defensive rotation.

Jude is a towering presence on the defensive line at 6’4″, using his size and length to disrupt plays at the point of attack. On film, he shows the ability to shed blockers, maintain leverage, and make tackles behind the line of scrimmage. His quickness off the snap and ability to anticipate plays allow him to collapse pockets and chase down ball carriers. Jude’s combination of size, strength, and motor makes him a force in both the run and pass game, and as he continues to refine technique, he has the potential to dominate at the next level.
