Pre-Season Outlook
Wright has played for six teams in five seasons, never appearing in more than 14 games with one team or lasting more than four games since 2021. He's made 87.3 percent of his field goals and 95.3 percent of PATs, showing enough accuracy to potentially stick as a long-term kicker if given the opportunity. The Panthers are ready to give him that chance, with undrafted rookie Ryan Fitzgerald being the only other kicker on the roster ahead of training camp.

Inks deal with Carolina
The Panthers signed Wright to a reserve/future contract Tuesday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Wright spent time with Kansas City, the 49ers and the Titans in 2024, converting 15 of his 16 field-goal attempts and all six of his extra-point tries. With Eddy Pineiro set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer, Wright's signing provides Carolina with another option at kicker.

Sent back to practice squad
Wright reverted to Tennessee's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Analysis: Wright was elevated from the Titans' practice squad ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale against Houston with Nick Folk (abdomen) unable to play. Wright made both of his field-goal attempts -- a 35-yarder and a 38-yarder -- in the contest and didn't attempt any extra points. The veteran placekicker also saw action in two games with Kansas City and in one game with San Francisco during the campaign, finishing a collective 15-for-16 on field-goal attempts (his only miss came from 59 yards out)…read more

Elevated for regular-season finale
The Titans elevated Wright from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.
Analysis: Wright will serve as the Titans' kicker for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Texans due to Nick Folk (abdomen) being ruled out. Wright made all three of his field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try during Tennessee's Week 17 loss to Jacksonville. Wright and Ka'imi Fairbairn will have their fair share of kicking issues as rain is expected for most, if not all, of Sunday's contest.

Sticking around in Tennessee
The Titans signed Wright to the practice squad Wednesday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Analysis: Wright was the starting kicker during the Titans' Week 17 loss to the Jaguars, during which he connected on all three of his field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try. He was waived by Tennessee on Monday, but now that he's on the practice squad, he could be elevated to the active roster for Sunday's regular-season finale against Houston if Nick Folk (abdomen) is unable to play.

Dropped by Tennessee
The Titans waived Wright on Monday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Wright impressed while serving as the Titans' top kicker in the Week 17 loss to the Jaguars, converting on all three of his field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try while filling in for the injured Nick Folk (abdomen). Folk is likely to return and serve as Tennessee's starting kicker in the Week 18 matchup against the Colts after Wright was waived Monday.

Promoted to active roster
Wright was signed to the Titans' active roster from the practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's game in Jacksonville, Jim Wyatt of the team's official website reports.
Analysis: With Nick Folk (abdomen) sidelined again and Brayden Narveson cut earlier in the week, Wright will get the Week 17 nod at kicker for Tennessee. This will be the third team he has kicked for this season. He has gone a combined 11-for-12 on field-goal attempts and 5-for-5 on extra points in three games between the 49ers and Chiefs.

Set to kick for Tennessee on Sunday
The Titans are expected to promote Wright from the practice squad ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.
Analysis: With Nick Folk (abdomen) still injured, Wright is expected to get the Week 17 nod at kicker after Brayden Narveson was cut Monday following an uneven Week 16 showing versus Indianapolis, where he went two for two on his extra points but missed his lone field-goal attempt. Wright will kick for his third team already this season after he went a combined 11-for-12 on field-goal attempts and 5-for-5 on extra-point tries in three combined games for the 49ers and Chiefs.

Added to Tennessee's practice squad
The Titans signed Wright to their practice squad Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Wright arrives in Tennessee having previously appeared in three games between stops with the 49ers and Chiefs, during which he converted on 11 of 12 field-goal attempts and five of five extra-point tries. He'll give Tennessee another option at kicker after the team waived Brayden Narveson, who filled in for an injured Nick Folk (abdomen) in Week 16 and hit both of his extra-point tries but misfired on his lone field-goal attempt in a 38-30 loss to the Colts. Wright will likely be elevated to…read more

Let go by KC
The Chiefs waived Wright on Saturday.
Analysis: Wright's departure from Kansas City comes as a corresponding move to Harrison Butker (knee) being activated off injured reserve. Wright filled in for Butker during the final two weeks of the latter's absence and went 8-for-9 on field-goal tries, including 1-for-2 from 50-plus yards, while also converting both his extra-point attempts. Wright's overall success this season -- he also went 3-for-3 on field-goal tries earlier in the campaign in one game with the 49ers -- should make him one of the…read more

Expected to be cut
Wright is expected to be let go by the Chiefs on Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Harrison Butker (knee) is expected to be activated off injured reserve and kick Sunday, which would push out Wright entirely despite going 8-for-9 on FGAs over his two games with the Chiefs this season. Expect the team to formally announce both transactions at some point later Saturday.

Comes through in the clutch
Wright made all four field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 19-17 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Wright was perfect, connecting from 47, 33, and 50 yards out, before converting the game-winning 31-yard try as time expired, sealing a win for the Chiefs. The 28-year-old is now 8-for-9 on FGAs in two games with Kansas City this season and could operate as the team's kicker in Week 15 against the Browns if Harrison Butker (knee) isn't ready to return from IR.

The Chiefs signed Wright off their practice squad Wednesday.
Analysis: With Spencer Shrader (hamstring) landing on injured reserve Wednesday in a corresponding move, Wright is slated to handle kicking duties for the Chiefs Sunday against the Chargers. Wright -- who had previously knocked down four of five field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point attempt in last Friday's 19-17 win over the Raiders -- may not hold on to the kicking job beyond this week, however.

Back to practice squad
Wright reverted to the Chiefs' practice squad Saturday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Analysis: Wright was the Chiefs' placekicker for Friday's game against the Raiders. He went 4-for-5 on field-goal attempts and converted his lone extra-point try as he paced Kansas City to a 19-17 win over Las Vegas. With Harrison Butker (knee) on injured reserve and Spencer Shrader nursing a hamstring injury, Wright could be the Chiefs' starting kicker for Week 14 against the Chargers on Sunday, Dec. 8.

Converts four field goals Friday
Wright went 4-for-5 on field-goal attempts and made his only extra-point try in Friday's 19-17 win against Las Vegas.
Analysis: Wright was elevated from the practice squad Thursday with Harrison Butker on IR due to a knee injury and Spencer Shrader inactive with a hamstring issue. Wright's successful field goals came from 25, 42, 35 and 32 yards out, while his lone miss was a 59-yard try that ended the first half. Wright could kick for the Chiefs again Week 14 against the Chargers -- Butker isn't eligible to return until Week 15, and Shrader wasn't able to practice at all this week due to his injury.

Taking over kicking duties Friday
Wright was elevated from the Chiefs' practice squad Thursday ahead of Friday's matchup against Las Vegas.
Analysis: Wright will kick for Kansas City on Friday, as Spencer Shrader has been ruled out due to a hamstring injury. It will be the second game Wright has kicked in this season -- he was San Francisco's kicker in Week 6 against Seattle and converted all three of his field-goal attempts and all three of his extra-point tries but hurt his shoulder and back and subsequently landed on IR. Wright has kicked for five teams in his NFL career, and this will be his second stint as a member of the Chiefs.

Joins Chiefs' practice squad
Kansas City signed Wright to its practice squad Tuesday, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.
Analysis: Interim starting kicker Spencer Shrader is dealing with a hamstring injury ahead of Friday's game versus the Raiders, so it would stand to reason that Wright could be the Chiefs' plan at kicker for Week 13. He has already kicked for a different team this season, making all of his three field-goal tries and converting all three of his extra-point attempts in Week 6 with the 49ers.

Let go by 49ers
The 49ers waived Wright (shoulder) from injured reserve Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Analysis: Wright served as the 49ers' kicker in Week 6 against the Seahawks while Jake Moody (ankle) was sidelined. However, Wright suffered shoulder and back injuries during that game, and he was placed on injured reserve prior to San Francisco's Week 7 contest. Once Wright has recovered from his injuries, he'll look to catch on with a team in need of kicking depth, likely on a practice squad.

Officially placed on IR
The 49ers placed Wright (shoulder/back) on injured reserve Saturday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Wright injured his shoulder and back in Week 6 against the Seahawks as he stepped in as the starting placekicker for Jake Moody (ankle). Anders Carlson was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, and he is expected to be the 49ers' placekicker for as long as Wright and Moody are sidelined. Wright must miss at least the next four games, and the earliest he could return is Week 12 against the Packers on Nov. 24.

Wright (shoulder/back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Chiefs.
Analysis: Working in place of Jake Moody (ankle) in Week 6 at Seattle, Wright emerged from the game with shoulder and back injuries that didn't allow him to practice Wednesday through Friday. Per Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle, the 49ers are expected to place Wright on injured reserve Saturday and subsequently elevate Anders Carlson from the practice squad.

Wright (shoulder/back) did not participate at the 49ers' practice Thursday.

The kicker injured himself making a tackle in San Francisco's win over the Seahawks in Week 6 and his availability for Week 7 is now in question. Wright will look to return to practice Friday, but if he can't go Sunday against Kansas City, Anders Carlson will likely be elevated to the active roster in his place.

Wright (shoulder) was held out of practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Wright injured his shoulder while making a tackle late in last Thursday's win over Seattle. An MRI returned negative, and early indications were that Wright would be be able to avoid missing any time, but his absence to begin the practice week casts at least a little doubt on his status for Sunday's game against Kansas City.

Wright is expected to serve as the 49ers' placekicker on Sunday, Oct. 20 against the Chiefs after an MRI on his shoulder returned negative Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Wright got hurt while attempting to tackle Seahawks returner Dee Williams on a kickoff late in the fourth quarter of Thursday's 36-24 win. He was spotted getting examined by a member of the 49ers' staff afterward, but the nature of the injury wasn't known until coach Kyle Shanahan spoke to the media Friday, when he told Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com that Wright dislocated his shoulder.

Hurts shoulder in SF debut
Wright dislocated his shoulder during Thursday's 36-24 win over the Seahawks and is awaiting an MRI on the injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Wright suffered the injury while making a tackle late in the game. Prior to that, he was effective filling in for Jake Moody (ankle), converting all three of his field-goal attempts and adding three successful PATs. If Wright is unable to recover before the 49ers host the Chiefs on Sunday, Oct. 20, San Francisco would have to turn to its third kicker in three games.

Wright has seen NFL action in each of the last four seasons across stops with Pittsburgh, Jacksonville, Kansas City and Carolina, converting 40 of 47 field-goal attempts (85.1 percent) with a career long of 59 yards.

Time up in Pittsburgh
The Steelers released Wright on Monday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Wright has logged previous stints with Pittsburgh, as well as a number of other NFL teams, but he was never a true candidate to beat out Chris Boswell for a spot on the Steelers' 53-man roster.

However, Wright hasn't played in a game since Week 13 and will lose his spot on the practice squad ahead of the Super Bowl.

The Chiefs elevated Wright from the practice squad Friday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.
Analysis: The fact that Kansas City is using one of its two allotted practice-squad elevations on Wright signals that Harrison Butker (back) -- who is listed as questionable -- may not play Saturday against the Raiders. If Butker is placed on the inactive list ahead of Saturday's 4:30 p.m. ET kickoff, Wright would step in to handle kicking duties for Kansas City.

Over his last three appearances, he's made all 10 of his field-goal attempts while converting all five of his extra-point tries.

Wright converted all three of his field-goal attempts while making his lone extra-point try during the Steelers' 24-17 win over the Colts on Monday.
Analysis: Wright missed two field-goal attempts during his Steelers debut against the Saints in Week 10, but he's converted all 10 of his kicks over the last two weeks, including a 52-yard attempt during Monday's primetime win. He'll likely continue to serve as Pittsburgh's kicker next week against Atlanta, but his role after Week 13 likely depends on when Chris Boswell (groin) is cleared to return from injured reserve.

Perfect in loss
Wright converted all three of his field-goal attempts while making all three of his extra-point tries during the Steelers' 37-30 loss to Cincinnati on Sunday.
Analysis: Wright missed two field-goal attempts during last week's win over the Saints, but he had a chance to redeem himself in Week 11. The 26-year-old had plenty of opportunities against the Bengals, and he drilled six kicks during the narrow loss. Chris Boswell (groin) will miss at least two more games, so Wright should have the chance to continue serving as the Steelers' kicker after Sunday's strong performance.

Head coach Mike Tomlin confirmed Tuesday that Wright would retain kicking duties for the Steelers in the team's Week 11 game against the Bengals, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Wright will get another shot at redemption after misfiring from 39 and 48 yards out on two of his four field-goal attempts in this past Sunday's 20-10 win over the Saints. The 26-year-old has converted at a respectable 83.3 percent rate from the field over parts of three NFL seasons, so the Steelers believe the erratic showing against the Saints was more of an outlier performance.

Analysis: Wright had already been expected to handle kicking duties this weekend after the Steelers signed him off the Chiefs' practice squad Wednesday, but Boswell's move to IR gives the former a more extended opportunity. Boswell will have to spend a minimum of four games on IR, clearing the way for Wright to continue to build on what's been a strong start to his NFL career.

Catches on with Steelers
Pittsburgh signed Wright off Kansas City's practice squad Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: Wright made his NFL debut with the Steelers in 2020, but he's since had stints with the Jaguars and Chiefs, the latter of whom he appeared with in two games earlier this season. Over 19 career NFL games, Wright has converted 28 of 32 field-goal attempts and 28 of 30 extra-point tries. The Steelers' decision to sign him suggests that he'll likely serve as the team's kicker Week 10 against the Saints while Chris Boswell continues to tend to a groin injury following Pittsburgh's bye week.

Set to kick Sunday
Wright was elevated to the active roster Saturday and will kick for the Chiefs on Sunday with Harrison Butker (ankle) sidelined.
Analysis: Wright joined the Chiefs' practice squad earlier this week and won't waste any time jumping up to the active roster. The second-year kicker was relatively automatic last year with the Jaguars, missing just three of his 24 field goals, but all three of those misses came from 40-plus yards out. Conditions could be tricky with Sunday's game being played in Tampa Bay, as the state of Florida continues to deal with the damage from the most recent hurricane.

Secures practice squad deal
Wright was signed to the Chiefs' practice squad Tuesday, Charles Goldman of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Wright was added by Kansas City, as starting kicker Harrison Butker, who returned to practice Wednesday, is still working his way back from an ankle injury suffered in Week 1. The practice-squad kicker went 34-of-39 on total kicking attempts over 14 games with Jacksonville last season, so he will provide a reliable backup option if Butker sits out once again this Sunday against the Buccaneers.

Let go Wednesday
Wright was released by the Jaguars on Wednesday, John Reid of The Florida Times-Union reports.
Analysis: The Jaguars cut Wright coming off a season in which he appeared in 14 contests and made 21 of 24 field-goal attempts. He took over for the released Josh Lambo in Week 4 last season and never relinquished kicker duties. However, with a new coaching staff in place of 2022, Wright apparently wasn't viewed as sufficient competition for Ryan Santoso and Andrew Mevis, who remain on hand as the Jaguars' kicking options.

Perfect on six kicks in finale
Wright made all four field-goal attempts and both PATs during Sunday's 26-11 win over the Colts.
Analysis: Wright made field goals from 20, 22, 31 and 39 yards and finished the campaign by making his last 14 attempts. The 25-year-old served as Jacksonville's kicker for 14 games, and he went 21-for-24 on field goals and 13-for-15 on extra points. Wright remains under contract for 2022 and should be the favorite to kick next season, though the Jags may bring in some competition.

Makes both kicks in blowout
Wright made his lone field-goal attempt and his lone PAT during Sunday's 50-10 loss at New England.
Analysis: Jacksonville's offense managed only 11 first downs, so Wright once again had limited opportunities in the kicking game. He missed his first field goal of the season but is 16-for-18 on field goals over the past 10 games. Despite not missing a field goal since Week 10, Wright won't be on the fantasy radar for the final game of the regular season given the offense's struggles.

Perfect on three kicks
Wright made all three field-goal attempts and did not attempt an extra-point during Sunday's 26-21 loss to the Jets.
Analysis: Wright converted field goals from 21, 40 and 45 yards but never receive a PAT opportunity since Jacksonville attempted two-point conversions on all three touchdowns. The 25-year-old has now kicked three field goals in each of the past two games after not attempting any over the previous two contests. The inconsistent offense limits his fantasy value, but Wright has come on strong and is 16-for-19 on field-goal attempts and 10-for-12 on PATs this season.

No opportunities Week 14
Wright didn't attempt a kick during Sunday's 20-0 loss to the Titans.
Analysis: Wright delivered the opening kickoff but never took the field again Sunday, as Jacksonville's offense mustered only 192 yards and had four turnovers. The 25-year-old has one successful PAT and zero field-goal attempts over the past two games.

Converts only PAT
Wright made his lone extra-point attempt and did not attempt a field goal during Sunday's 37-7 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Wright received only a single opportunity to kick Sunday as Jacksonville's offense mustered only 3.6 yards per play. The 25-year-old simply doesn't see enough scoring opportunities to warrant fantasy consideration.

Makes both field goals
Wright converted both field-goal attempts and did not attempt an extra-point during Sunday's 21-14 loss to Atlanta.
Analysis: Wright converted from 22 and 34 yards in the contest, and the Jaguars opted for a two-point conversion on their only touchdown of the afternoon. He continue to have limited fantasy upside in poor offense that has topped the 20-point mark only three times in 11 games.

Converts both kicks
Wright made his only field-goal attempt and his lone PAT during Sunday's 30-10 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: The Jacksonville offense mustered only 200 total yards Sunday, so Wright had only two scoring opportunities, which he capitalized on. The 25-year-old is 8-for-11 on field goals and 8-for-10 on PATs in seven games this season.

Misses two kicks in loss
Wright made one of two field-goal attempts and missed his lone PAT during Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Colts.
Analysis: Wright missed wide right on the extra point following Jacksonville's first touchdown, and he was wide right again from 51 yards during the third quarter. The 25-year-old did convert from 56 yards to close out the first half. Wright has attempted only two fields goals from inside 40 yards in six games, though he is 4-for-6 on attempts from 50-plus yards.

Provides only scoring in win
Wright made three of four field-goal attempts during Sunday's 9-6 win over the Bills.
Analysis: Wright converted from 21, 39 and 55 yards to supply Jacksonville's only points of the afternoon, He also missed wide left from 42 yards during the third quarter, which was comically preceded by two unofficial misses that were negated by penalties. Wright is 6-for-8 on field goals and 7-for-8 on PATs through five games this season, and he remains a fantasy kicker to avoid given the overall struggles of the Jacksonville offense.

Makes extra-point attempt
Wright made his lone PAT and didn't attempt a field goal during Sunday's 31-7 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: Jacksonville's offense struggled most of the day, and its only drive that went beyond the Seattle 38-yard line resulted in a touchdown. Wright is 3-for-4 on field goals and 7-for-8 on PATs in four games this season, and the Jaguars' offense doesn't supply enough scoring chances for him to be fantasy relevant, even if he made every kick.

Converts game-winning kick
Wright made all three field-goal attempts and both PATs during Sunday's 23-20 win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: The Jaguars entered Sunday's contest without a made field goal on the season, but Wright came through three times in London, inlcuding the game-winning kick from 53 yards as time expired. He also converted from 40 and 54 yards. Josh Lambo remains on the roster for now, but the kicking job should be Wright's job moving forward following his Week 6 performance.

Retains kicking job
Wright will serve as the Jaguars' kicker Sunday against the Dolphins in London with Josh Lambo (coach's decision) inactive for the contest, Mia O'Brien of First Coast News Jacksonville reports.
Analysis: For the second straight week, Wright has won out in the competition for kicking duties with Lambo, who has been forced to battle for his job since his Week 4 absence due to a personal matter. Though he converted on only one of two extra-point tries and hit the crossbar and missed on a 53-yard attempt in last week's loss to the Titans, Wright could build up some more job security with a stronger showing in London.

Wright signed a contract with the Jaguars on Saturday, John Shipley of SI.com reports.
Analysis: It sure seems like Josh Lambo's tenure with the team could be coming to an end, and at least for the immediate future expect Wright to once again handle the primary kicking duties. Wright has attempted just one field goal over the last two weeks as a starter, but he's at least gone 4-for-5 on extra-point attempts over that stretch.

Wright made all three of his PATs and did not attempt a field goal during Thursday's 24-21 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: The 25-year-old was promoted from the practice squad to kick Thursday with Josh Lambo (personal) unavailable, and he delivered on the few opportunities he had versus Cincinnati. Wright is poised to revert to the practice squad, but he could receive a longer look from the Jags given Lambo is 0-for-3 on field goals and 5-for-7 on PATs through three games this season.

The Jaguars elevated Wright from their practice squad ahead of Thursday's game against the Bengals, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: As expected, Wright will at least temporarily join the Jaguars to handle kicking duties while Josh Lambo (personal) misses the Week 4 matchup. Jacksonville hasn't indicated that Lambo will miss additional time beyond Thursday's game, but a solid showing by Wright could put Lambo's job on notice in any case. Through the Jaguars' first three games, Lambo has missed all three of his field-goal attempts and has converted on only five of seven extra-point tries.

The Jaguars will elevate Wright from their practice squad to handle kicking duties Thursday against the Bengals, J.P. Shadrick of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: He'll be summoned as a replacement for Josh Lambo (personal), who was been ruled out for the contest. Assuming Lambo's absence from the team isn't a long-term concern, Wright will likely revert to the practice squad shortly after Thursday's contest. Wright's previous NFL action came in three games with the Steelers last season, when he connected on all four of his field-goal attempts and all seven of his extra-point tries.

Joins Jacksonville's practice squad
The Jaguars signed Wright to their practice squad Monday.
Analysis: Wright was with the Lions during training camp, but he was waived in favor of Zane Gonzalez. Josh Lambo, Jacksonville's current kicker, has had a rough start to the season. He has missed all three of his field-goal attempts (two of which were beyond 50 yards) this year, and he missed two extra points during Sunday's loss to the Cardinals.

Analysis: Wright played the last two games in place of Chris Boswell (groin). In that stretch, Wright connected on all three field-goal attempts and all five extra-point tries.

Boswell will likely handle the kicking duties in the playoffs considering he's healthy, but Wright could have the chance to compete for a starting role with a team in 2021 given his performance over the past several weeks.

Analysis: Wright converted on all four of his point-after tries during Sunday's win over Indianapolis, though he was not afforded a field-goal attempt in the contest. The 24-year-old has been reliable over two appearances this season, knocking down all six of his PATs while draining his lone field-goal try of 37 yards Week 13 against Washington. As Chris Boswell continues to deal with a groin injury, there remains a chance of Wright being activated for Pittsburgh's regular-season finale at Cleveland.

Analysis: A second-year pro out of Central Florida, Wright looks poised to make his NFL debut Week 13 after the Steelers downgraded top kicker Chris Boswell (hip) from questionable to doubtful for the contest. Wright's stint with the organization spans less than a week after he was signed to the practice squad Nov. 30, but he attended training camp with the Steelers in 2019.
