On long-term talent our Rating reads 28, 57th of 85 of the 85 full-backs in the Major League Soccer. At 28 Hernández is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.2 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Hernández missed 4 games through injury (thigh, muscle, international duty) out of roughly 34 this season. The 21 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.
Hernández is operating at his career peak — the 2025/26 level is the level.
Output in context · Atlanta United FC finished 8th of 15 · a mid-table side
3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 43.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 28.1, Hernández carries the 57th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Major League Soccer of 85. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
