Look: Ivan Pace Jr. Leads All Rookies in Pass-Rush Stat

Cincinnati has plenty of NFL talent in the league.

CINCINNATI — Pro Football Focus released its latest rookie grading update for the NFL's newest players and Ivan Pace Jr. (80.7 overall grade) is still a top-10 rookie overall this season despite his toughest outing to date this past Sunday.

Pace's pass-rush skills have stood out substantially through four games.

"Pace has made this list every week of the season, one of just five players to do so," Mason Cameron wrote. "However, the Vikings linebacker had a tough outing this past week, producing his lowest single-game grade of the season (59.4). While he produced no pass-rush wins — usually his most impressive facet — he still ranks third among all linebackers in pass-rush win rate (30.8%) this season."

Pace has 25 tackles, a half-sack, and three QB hits this season. He is the seventh-highest-rated rookie in the NFL.
