Browns QB Jacoby Brissett: ‘Freak’ Matthew Judon is ‘everything Belichick wants in a player’

FOXBOROUGH — Matthew Judon is off to the best statistical start of any pass rusher in Patriots history.

His six sacks are the most ever through New England’s first five games, and he’s also the first player ever to register sacks in five straight to open the season; Judon has been very, very productive.

New England’s next opponents are wary of that.

Browns quarterback Jacoby Brissett, who started his career in New England, sees Judon as something of a Patriots prototype and knows he needs to be aware of the linebacker at all times.
