Quick answer
WatchGranderson had 7 solo tackles, 2.5 sacks in 2026, ranking LB77 through 4 games. He ranks LB77 through 4 games, down from LB62. Early, not a finished step down. 2026 looks more like a flex than a locked starter. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
