There's something growing quite a bit taller than the rest of the grass that's coming up on a recently planted lawn (in Browns Mills, NJ). It was planted with 3 types of grass seed: Perennial Rye, Fine Fescue, and Kentucky Bluegrass (using this mix: https://www.pennington.com/all-products/grass-seed/pennington-smart-seed-northeast).
Can someone tell me if what's coming up is one of the grasses in this mix or if it's a weed (or something else)?
Thank you!

"I believe this is nutsedge, although, grassy plants are very hard to ID from photos. I am sending you a fact sheet that shows ways to confirm its ID. Cutting a piece and looking at the cross section (your'll see in the link) is a great way to determine if its nutsedge.
