The full breakdown
Ingram-Dawkins earned a solid 70 grade in run defense by demonstrating great point-of-attack strength, highlighted by shedding the right guard for a stop at Q1 10:11 and defeating a reach block at Q3 08:35. However, that facet was undercut by repeated breakdowns against the left tackle's down blocks, getting pinned or washed inside on several snaps including Q1 07:50, Q2 10:06, and Q3 01:20. His pass rush grade settled at 61 across 36 snaps due to a general lack of pocket collapse, being stonewalled inside on plays like Q1 06:50 and Q2 02:36. He did provide a high-value rush play at Q3 07:56 by reading the quarterback and batting down a pass at the line of scrimmage.
