The Cincinnati Bengals are aware of the Patriots’ dynamic pass-rushing duo ahead of Saturday’s game. Josh Uche and Matthew Judon will be put to the test, as New England’s defense gets set to take on Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals.
Both players have compiled double-digit sack totals with Judon sitting at 14.5 sacks on the season and Uche with 10.5 sacks. Together, they form a one-two punch for New England defensively. Judon had a quieter game against Las Vegas last weekend, as he did not record a sack.
Meanwhile, Uche continued his stellar pass-rushing season with a half sack in the game.
The two have combined for 25 sacks on the season, and it’s something the Bengals will be ready for, as offensive coordinator Brian Callahan told CLNS Media’s Mike Petraglia.
“They’re as good as anybody. With Judon and Uche in double digits… Judon is playing as well as any defensive end in football,” said Callahan.
