The full breakdown

Engram's grade hovered near neutral due to 37 routine snaps out of 41 total plays. His receiving grade (62) was bolstered late when he fought through contact on an out route to draw a critical defensive penalty at Q4 01:01, but it was dampened at Q4 07:13 when he allowed Josh Wallace to undercut his break for a third-down breakup. His run blocking (57) proved below replacement level across limited volume, headlined by a failure to sustain a stalk block on the perimeter at Q4 13:47 that conceded a run stop.
