Howard’s seasoned linebacker bringing length, toughness, and backfield disruption
In the 2024 season, Judah McJimpsey played in 11 games for Howard and posted 30 total tackles, 18 solo stops, and 4.5 tackles for loss; by 2025, he was a senior leader in the middle and earned MEAC Defensive Player of the Week honors after a seven-tackle outing with 1.5 tackles for loss and a quarterback hurry. The fit is clear: he’s a 6-foot-2, 227-pound linebacker who brings physicality, leadership, and an instinct for negative plays, making him valuable for a defense that wants a dependable tone-setter rather than a flashy stat-stuffer.
