Two Eagles Declare For NFL Draft

Elgin, IL – Judson University is thrilled to announce that standout football players Jaylin Ware and Patrick Charles have officially declared for the 2025 NFL Draft. Both athletes have been instrumental in shaping the Judson Eagles' football program, earning recognition as top-tier prospects with the potential to make an impact at the next level.

 

A Testament to Talent and Dedication

 

 

 

 

Ware's journey to the NFL Draft is a reflection of his unwavering determination, relentless work ethic, and exceptional leadership both on and off the field. As a dominant force for the Eagles, he has played a pivotal role in fostering a winning culture under Head Coach Quentin Demps, a former NFL safety who has mentored Ware throughout his collegiate career.

 

"Jaylin's grit and determination have helped transform our program. He embodies perseverance, and his leadership has been invaluable in guiding our younger players. We will truly miss him," said Coach Demps.

 

Similarly, Patrick Charles, a standout from Canada, has established himself as a key leader and dynamic offensive presence for Judson. His dedication, discipline, and skill have positioned him as a promising draft prospect with opportunities in both the NFL and CFL.

 

"Patrick was a leader that all the offensive guys looked up to. I expect him to be a top draft pick in the CFL, but I know he has the drive and talent to compete at the NFL level as well," said Offensive Coordinator Coach Booton.

 

A Bright Future Ahead

 

Both Ware and Charles have garnered attention from scouts due to their athleticism, football intelligence, and unwavering commitment to the game. Their versatility, competitive nature, and leadership qualities make them valuable assets to any professional team.

 

As part of their draft journey, both players will have the opportunity to showcase their skills at Northwestern University's Pro Day in Spring 2025—an exclusive chance made possible through Coach Demps' strong NFL connections.

 

Judson University celebrates these two outstanding athletes as they take the next step toward their professional careers. Their journeys serve as inspirations to aspiring athletes, proving that with hard work, faith, and perseverance, anything is possible.
