Is this vine weevil grub?

Morning all,
My friend gave me some strawberry plants. She said a couple didn’t take. So when I got home, I inspected the roots and found something having a feast. Are they the dreaded baby vine weevils?

Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Didn’t notice any legs but didn’t pay much attention to the heads either. At least I know what to look for in future 👍
If in doubt, chuck it out
I’m just glad I checked them as soon as I got home
