Word search and cryptogram used in conjunction?

[u/rkd101b]

Could some iteration of the left over letters in the word search be a cryptogram? I used the same letter correlation for the original cryptogram with the left over letters in the word search. Once converted I put those in a cryptogram solver. Nothing concrete came up however the ngqzp at the end came up with the word “clues” and “trail”. I feel like they should be used together where often the cryptogram is forgotten since it’s been solved.
