The full breakdown

Bredeson was weighed down by a 54 run-blocking grade across six offensive snaps, where he struggled to anchor against front-seven defenders. He surrendered a tackle for loss on a toss run when he was stood up and shed on the edge at Q1 3:22, shortly after conceding another tackle in the C-gap at Q1 4:02. However, his strong special teams performance helped keep his grade afloat, highlighted by edge protection and a solo tackle on punt coverage at Q1 2:34. He also contributed positively in edge pass protection early in the fourth quarter.
