E. Edwards is a 34-year-old goalkeeper at San Jose Earthquakes, rated 5.9 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (2.1% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Edwards.

On the season, Edwards graded 0 for current form (age-blind), on 0 clean sheets across 1 appearance.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 2 → 0). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 6. At 34 Edwards is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.3 reflects that trajectory.

0 clean sheets in 1 appearance (0% of games). Playing behind an upper-table side (4th of 15) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 2.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 5.9 overall — below regular-starter level. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
