The full breakdown

Hawkins drove an 81 run defense grade by consistently attacking downhill from depth, highlighting his afternoon with an early goal-line stop at Q1 10:40 and a quick two-yard run fill at Q4 11:05. He also contributed on underneath passing downs, reading Dak Prescott at Q3 06:46 to drop George Pickens well short of the line to gain. However, his coverage grade dropped to a 58 due to glaring range and anticipation issues from deep alignments. His most costly error came at Q3 01:53, reacting far too late on a 19-yard touchdown pass to Jake Ferguson.
