I think it could be quackgrass. Tough to tell from the pictures but it looks very similar to what I dealt with in my yard.

One indicator of quackgrass is clasping auricles - I could only find 2 auricles in your second pic and they looked like they might be clasped. It grew much quicker and much taller than the rest of my grass and started to take over pretty quick. The surefire way to know is to let it grow out and make a seedhead.
The only way to get rid of quackgrass is to dig it up or roundup it. I chose roundup (they have complex root structures) then fertilized heavy to crowd out the smaller bunches of it that I missed. Good luck.
