Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 37 → 43). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 16, 125th of 135 of the 135 full-backs in the Major League Soccer. At 34 Byrne is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.6 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Byrne missed 14 games through injury (neck) out of roughly 37 this season. The 19 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Below his 2021/22 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
2.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 19 appearances.
With a Rating of 16.4, Byrne carries the 125th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Major League Soccer of 135. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~9), then tapers with age. At 34, Byrne sits on 2.6, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Byrne's projected Rating — 16.4 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
