“Just get better, get better from last season,” Grant said of his 2026 goal. “Be dominant, be dominating in the run and pass game, and get a lot of wins for this team.” …
Grant is noticeably slimmer this season. But his mission for this season is clear: to be such a bull in the trenches that he clears the path for linebackers Jacob Rodriguez and Jordyn Brooks to tackle everything.
“What Hafley asks us as a d-lineman in the run game is to grind blocks and be gritty type of guys, take on double teams,” Grant said. “So our guys, 10 (Rodriguez) and 20 (Brooks), can make plays and fly around. Just be us, mix it up and rush the passer and affect the QB.”
