Scores goal off bench Judd scored one goal to go with three shots (three on goal) in Saturday's 2-2 draw against Los Angeles Football Club. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 66th minute.

Impact Judd came off the bench in the second half and headed home Timo Werner's 70th minute cross to reduce LAFC's lead to 2-1, registering three shots including three on target across 45 minutes before being denied by Hugo Lloris with a free header in the 80th minute that would have leveled earlier. He was San Jose's most dangerous outlet after his introduction and his persistence in the area created the sustained pressure that ultimately produced Reid Roberts' late equalizer.

Substitute option Saturday Judd (lower body) is on the bench for Saturday's clash with Los Angeles FC.

Impact Judd's potential comeback is a major boost to the Earthquake's attacking depth, giving them a solid alternative to Ousseni Bouda up front. The experienced striker had slowed down following a strong start to the season, but he remains the squad's top scorer with 12 goals in 23 matches played.

Forced off after goal Wednesday Judd scored one goal but was unable to continue playing in Wednesday's contest versus San Diego because of a physical problem.

Impact Judd could be dealing with a muscular problem which would leave him at risk of missing at least a couple of games following his early substitution in the last match. Such an issue would represent a major setback for the forward's confidence, as he had just returned to the initial lineup and scored via right-footed finish after being demoted to a rotational role for a few games prior to the midweek clash. Ousseni Bouda should be expected to lead the front line if Judd is ruled out.

Suspended against Galaxy Judd picked up a yellow card in Wednesday's 4-0 loss to Orlando City, his fifth of the season, and will be suspended for Saturday's match against LA Galaxy, according to the league...

Impact Judd's absence opens the door for Timo Werner to likely take on a more central role leading the attack for that fixture. The suspension is a minor disruption to San Jose's forward line, and Judd should be available to regain his undisputed role once the one match ban is served against Cincinnati on Aug. 1.
