Sounds like the glass may be binding in the runs. Hard to tell from here.

If its both windows, you may have them reversed left and right. I had a similar problem with the drivers side after I changed out the piece of metal at the bottom of the window. There is a difference in the pieces.

Nylon window roller attaches to stud on regulator, then fits into the window channel that the glass is adhered to.

The roller is retained in place by a hairpin type clip that is furnished with the roller that's reproduced.

The roller may have broken or the retaining clip could have broken or is missing.

Thanks ND. One of my window rollers broke over the weekend. I searched the forum and when I saw your name I knew the part number I needed would be there. You are the man!
