Season so far
Through two games in 2026, Will Fries has performed near a replacement level, earning a 63.1 overall grade across 121 snaps. His baseline is primarily driven by steady run blocking, highlighted by clean execution on pulling kick-outs and key short-yardage conversions. However, his pass protection has shown sharp week-to-week inconsistency. After a clean, penalty-free outing in Week 2 against Chicago, his grade fell to 60.7 against Tampa Bay due to a costly fourth-quarter holding penalty after getting beaten inside. Lingering issues with solo block leverage in the run game and late-down pass protection have prevented him from breaking into solid starter territory.
