The full breakdown

Redmond finished at 60.0 due to recurring run-defense issues offsetting an otherwise quiet 40 pass-rush snaps. He struggled to maintain his gap fit against zone concepts, getting washed down or sealed inside multiple times across the first half (Q1 02:25, Q2 09:28). He did flash positively against the run at Q2 10:06 by disengaging from the right tackle to make a tackle. His highest-graded play came on pass rush at Q1 02:02, where he read the quarterback to bat down a throw at the line.
