If there’s any player in MLS who is familiar with a punishing schedule, it’s San Jose Earthquakes midfielder Judson.
The Brazilian joined the Earthquakes in 2019, but before that he played for Avaí, which toggled between the top two national divisions in his native country.
In 2018, Judson played an astonishing 4,344 minutes across all competitions for his club. In contrast, if he plays the remaining four games and the Quakes reach the playoffs this year, he may hit that mark combined across all competitions in two full seasons with San Jose.
A midfielder known for doing the “dirty work” for his team, Judson is known for running end to end for 90 minutes every game and admitted he keeps an eye on the distances he covers.
