* High Intelligence: Jay was shown to be a highly intelligent, sharp-witted, and methodical man and was highly adaptable to any situation given to him. He is extremely level-headed and can handle extreme stress to get out of dangerous situations by using incredible street smarts. He was capable of using his charm and polite side to gain trust with enemies in order to blend in and to complete his task without them knowing that he was there within their organization.
* Criminology: As a former enforcer of the Red Order Syndicate, Jay has an exceptional insight in how the criminal underworld operated and how illegal activities work, such as mercenary groups and feared crime families. He also displayed extensive knowledge of illegal narcotics, able to tell what kind of drugs that the Georgia criminal underworld were moving and selling.
* Intimidation: Due to his title as "The Raider" and his exceptional combat abilities, Jay is widely known and feared within the criminal underworld and was so infamous that even his title strikes fear and terror into the hearts and souls of his enemies that incurred his wrath. Jay used his combat abilities and title to lure enemies away from him, even using a simple Ace of Spades card and placing it on a enemy's corpse to further fuel more fear toward him.
* Hacking Skills: After learning from NSA computer technicians that joined the PMC, he is a intermediate hacker with complete access to even the most secret government servers to find his targets and to trace their location with technical help. He can jam communications, cause blackouts, and disable security systems.
* Multilingualism: Jay is shown to be fluent in several languages, including English, Spanish, German, Italian, Latin (to a certain degree), French, and Arabic. Out of the languages, Spanish is his most spoken as he communicated with several Argentinian soldiers and German as he spoke to Hansel while at HQ.
* Skilled Physician: Jay appears to have extensive knowledge of human anatomy and physiology, as well as intermediate first aid and medicine, as shown during his self-healing scenes where he puts slight pressure on his severe wounds. He is shown to be extremely knowledgeable in pressure points, as shown during his sparring match with Morgan Rook.
* Master Tactician: As a former Infantryman that is trained by a Iraq War era combat veteran/CO, Jay is highly capable of casing out, planning, and executing plans, assassinations, and raids. He is a keen judge of character, often correctly assessing the correct intentions, flaws, and capabilities of both allies and enemies just by watching them. He is a skilled negotiator and interrogator, capable of presenting facts and tell lies without inducing intense emotion. He is a very effective leader and mentor, having trained, fought, and led his Reapers and a large number of W.T.O. operatives into various battles with strategic facts and thinking, which made him far more dangerous than being an lone wolf. He's also capable of spotting certain flaws within his environment and using any methods deemed necessary to accomplish his goals, such as using explosives to take out the Von Raines family and picking out the stragglers with ease. As shown in the raid against the Brubaker Gang, Jay is a strong and fierce leader to the core, having commanded and led a massive number of skilled operatives to help take out Ryder Brubaker and his associates.
* Expert Spy: Having worked with the CIA SAD, Jay is extremely skilled in stealth, espionage, infiltration, disguises, thievery, and eavesdropping. He's well adept in blending in with his surroundings as well as sneaking around heavily guarded outposts and compounds with ease.
* Stealth Mastery: Jay is a master in stealth tactics, such as understanding the use of disguises to enter authorized locations, using his hacking skills to disable communications and light sources, and using the environment around him to blend in, even in plain sight, to avoid detection. He's also capable of luring enemies into certain scenarios where he can easily eliminate them or pass by them in order to move to the objective.
* Skilled Engineer: Jay is a very skilled mechanic and engineer that is capable of manipulating and using objects and machinery around him to gain an advantage. He's also capable of using makeshift traps out of common household supplies and military weaponry to deter his enemies and has modified his vehicle to take a beating.
* Skilled Scientist: Jay has shown to be somewhat knowledgeable in poison and was able to concoct poisons to either incapacitate or kill his enemies. Combined with his charm, Jay is able to use poison whatever he saw a opportunity in the form of food and was capable of using it efficiently to make the death look like an accident.
* Connections: Having worked with various law enforcement agencies and the PMC, Jay has a vast set that he can use to gain an advantage on his enemies, even with weapons dealers, criminal informants, and government officials.
* Forensics Specialist: Jay is very capable of making a "clean job" by using the silent approach to minimize mass destruction. Whenever he kills his targets, he tries to make the deaths look like either a gang attack or a simple accident.
* Expert Driver: During his time in the PMC, Jay has shown exceptional driving skills to a point where he is even capable of driving manual cars, mechanicalized vehicles (tanks, APCs, boats, and helicopters) and motorcycles with ease.
* Master Marksman: As shown in various fights, Jay is extremely proficient with firearms, including pistols, revolvers, rifles, shotguns, as well as being frighteningly precise with eliminating targets in both close-range and long-range distances (as shown during his fights). He's also skilled with using and firing heavier weaponry, such as grenade launchers, light machine guns, and flamethrowers as well as using mounted weaponry. Due to his extensive knowledge of guerrilla tactics, Jay has shown to be extremely skilled with bows as well as scavenging and using whatever firearm that the enemy has to achieve his goals. Jay is able to blend his marksmanship with hand-to-hand skills, being able to grapple, disarm, and even use his enemies' own weaponry against them with precision. Jay is also seen to slightly calculate the trajectory of his weapons and used them to great effect, such as shooting an RPG at an lightly armored car with some difficulty.
* Master Martial Artist: Having been trained by a former Green Beret and various Reaper officers, Jay is shown to be an incredibly skilled hand-to-hand fighter. His fighting style is mostly improvised and is consisted of Kickboxing, Krav Maga, Eskrima, Kempo Jiu-Jitsu, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, Sambo, Hapkido, Systema, and Ninjutsu. He can quickly outmaneuver, outmatch, and outlast his opponents, even capable of taking on multiple opponents at once. Due to his quick wit, Jay is able to adapt to his opponent's fighting styles, studying them during the fight and adapting to turn their strengths against them as seen in his fights with Jack Sharpe, Ryan Welles, and Dominick Smith. He also sometimes makes use of both dirty tactics, such as eye gouges, biting, and striking the groin and the environment around him to gain an advantage.
* Knife Mastery: Jay is highly skilled in wielding and throwing blades, such as knives and axes. Combined with his extensive knowledge of anatomy and intense experience in Kali, Jay is able to use blades to find a suitable angle to either wound or kill an opponent in a fight and has shown deadly expertise with a machete as shown during his fights.
* Improvised Weapon Mastery: In addition to his skills with firearms and martial arts, Jay is very good with using whatever tools that he sees during his fights to gain an advantage over his opponents, as such a metal pipe to kill a Hive operator. Due to his engineering skills, Jay was very capable of making makeshift traps with minimal resources to maim and kill opponents.
* Peak Human Condition: As a former soldier of the United States Army, Jay has displayed peak human physicality for a man of his age. He's extremely athletic, and his strength, stamina, speed, agility, reflexes, durability, and pain threshold are in top condition.
* Peak Human Strength: Despite his build, Jay is very strong, capable of overpowering and restrain even larger opponents, knock out or outright kill an skilled operator with a single strike, break their bones and necks with ease, breaking through walls and glass with some difficulty, and surprisingly ripping out their throats, eyes, and ears with relative ease, which shocked allies and enemies alike. Jay was also capable of breaking out of handcuffs and other restraints fairly easy due to his specialized training. His strength is somewhat near inhuman to a degree, as shown as he broke part of a concrete wall and punched through a brick wall during his fight with Ryan Welles and was capable of lifting up and slamming a operative to the ground while gouging the eyes. One possible explanation of his strength comes from his intense exercise regime that involved strength training, which would explain his capability to do nearly difficult tasks that the average man couldn't.
* Peak Human Durability: Jay is highly resilient and sturdy due to his time in the battlefield. Jay is able to survive multiple gunshot wounds, stabbings/slashes, and blunt force trauma without feeling that much pain. His greatest feats of his durability was surviving a brutal torture session by the Red Order Syndicate (a broken femur, a gunshot wound near the heart, etc) and a severe beating and was capable of withstanding heavier punches from Jack, who's more skilled in hand-to-hand and utilized brute strength. His durability also made him tougher to kill, as evidenced during his fight against Scorpio.
* Peak Human Speed: Jay is extremely fast, especially for a man of his age. Jay is able to outrun his opponents and is able to run and sprint far distances uninterrupted. In combat, Jay's speed made him more dangerous as he used his anatomical knowledge to quickly injure an enemy.
* Peak Human Agility: Jay has extreme amounts of stamina. He is able to fight for considerate amounts of time and run great distances uninterrupted. He is able to flip and spin his way out of incoming gunfire with the impressive feats of an experienced gymnast and to vault, scale, and traverse through difficult terrains and obstacles with ease. Even with being extremely injured or tired, Jay required little time to recover before continuing the fight.
* Peak Human Reflexes: Jay has incredible reflexes. Due to his time in the battlefield, Jay has displayed a fast reaction time, as he is able to evade bullets and melee attacks during combat with ease. Due to his expertise in guerrilla warfare, Jay is able to correctly assess the situation, to understand the purpose, and to react effectively, making it harder for the enemy to outwit him in the field. His senses are shown to be enhanced, having the capability to hear, smell, and sense his enemies from any direction and to avoid ambushes, raids, and sniper fire with ease.
* High Pain Tolerance: Despite his strong combat proficiency, Jay has been frequently injured throughout the series, but demonstrates a near-inhuman tolerance to pain, being able to survive near fatal injuries, such as gunshot wounds, stabbing, blunt force trauma, and physical blows with ease. As shown in his fights with numerous opponents like Jack Riley Sharpe, Trevor Bachelor, and Randall Reed, Jay has shown that he can outlast and outwit them by using his injuries against them, opening them up for a counter-attack.
