  • Signs on with Jacksonville

    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, but 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 went 4-for-5 on extra-point attempts over that stretch.

  • Reverts back to practice squad

    Wright reverted back to the Jaguars' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Analysis: Wright operated as the primary kicker Sunday, as Josh Lambo (coach's decision) was inactive. However, he failed to take advantage of the opportunity, as he hit the upright on a PAT during the first quarter and left a 53-yard field goal short.

  • Misses PAT

    Wright made one of two PATs and missed his lone field-goal attempt during Sunday's 37-19 loss to the Titans.

    Analysis: Wright hit the right upright on a PAT during the first quarter, and he also came up short and hit the crossbar on a 53-yard field goal. The 25-year-old won the kicking competition with Josh Lambo last week, but he was unable to fully take advantage of the game opportunity. Lambo and Wright are a combined 0-for-4 on field-goal attempts as the Jaguars have yet to convert one this season. Wright was a gameday elevation Sunday and will revert back to the practice squad, and it's uncertain if he'll…read more

  • Handling kicking duties

    Wright is active for Sunday's game against the Titans and will handle kicking duties.

    Analysis: Wright was elevated from the practice squad for Sunday's game and will operate as Jacksonville's kicker with Josh Lambo (coach's decision) inactive. Wright made his team debut last week and made all three of his PAT attempts.

  • Elevated for Week 5

    Wright was elevated from the Jaguars' practice squad Saturday.

    Analysis: Wright will join the active roster for a second straight game after he converted all three of his extra-point tries last week. Josh Lambo could be active, but Wright seems to have a good chance to handle kicking duties against Tennessee.

  • Reverts to practice squad

    Wright has reverted to the Jaguars' practice squad per the NFL's transaction log.

    Analysis: Wright replaced Josh Lambo (personal) on the team's active roster for Thursday's Week 4 loss to the Bengals. He converted all of his PATs and did not attempt a field goal during the contest.

  • Converts three PATs

    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.

  • Officially promoted for Week 4

    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.

  • Kicking for Jacksonville in Week 4

    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. Wright may be looking at an elevation if Lambo continues to struggle.

  • Let go by Detroit

    Wright was waived by the Lions on Tuesday.

    Analysis: Wright inked a reserve/future contract with the Lions in January but will be let go after opening camp with the team. Zane Gonzalez was signed in a corresponding move to compete with Randy Bullock.

  • Gets deal with Lions

    Detroit signed Wright to a reserve/future contract Friday, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.

    Analysis: Wright appeared in three games with the Steelers in 2020, starting place of Chris Boswell while the latter dealt with a groin injury. In that span, Wright converted all four of his field-goal tries and all seven extra-point attempts. Matt Prater is set to hit free agency this offseason.

  • Heads to practice roster

    Wright reverted to the Steelers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    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. If Boswell's healthy, he'll be the Steelers' starting kicker in Sunday's wild-card game against the Browns. Otherwise, Wright will get the nod again.

  • Perfect once again

    Wright converted on all three of his field-goal attempts while also making his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Browns.

    Analysis: Wright filled in for Chris Boswell (groin) once again Sunday, and he was perfect on four kicks during the regular-season finale. 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.

  • Returns to active roster

    Wright was elevated to the Steelers' active roster Saturday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Wright made his second appearance of the season in Week 16 against the Colts, making all four of his extra-point attempts in the process. He'll be the Steelers' kicker again in Week 17 with Chris Boswell (groin) still sidelined.

  • Moved back to practice squad

    Wright reverted to the Steelers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    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.

  • Converts on four extra-point tries

    Wright didn't attempt any field goals but converted on all four of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 28-24 win over the Colts.

    Analysis: Wright was filling in for Chris Boswell (groin) for the second time this season, and he was perfect on his four kicks during the comeback win. The UCF product has been effective when needed during limited action this year, but he should return to the practice squad if Boswell is healthy enough to play against the Browns in Week 17.

  • Kicking for Pittsburgh in Week 16

    Pittsburgh elevated Wright to the active roster Saturday.

    Analysis: Chris Boswell has been ruled out ahead of Week 16 because of a groin injury, aligning the 24-year-old Wright for his second NFL appearance. The UCF product went 2-for-2 on extra points while converting his lone field-goal try of 37 yards during a Week 13 loss to Washington.

  • Reverts to practice squad

    Wright reverted from Pittsburgh's active roster to the practice squad Tuesday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old was perfect in his debut Monday against Washington, making his lone field-goal attempt and both PATs during the loss. The availability of Chris Boswell (hip) will determine whether Wright receives another chance to kick Week 14.

  • Perfect on three kicks

    Wright converted on his lone field-goal attempt while making two extra-point tries in Monday's 23-17 loss to Washington.

    Analysis: Wright made his NFL debut Monday with Chris Boswell (hip) inactive, and the 24-year-old performed well with the opportunities he was given. Wright's status for the Steelers' Week 14 contest against Buffalo depends on Boswell's health Sunday.

  • Officially elevated Monday

    The Steelers elevated Wright to the active roster from the practice squad Monday, Missi Matthews of the Steelers' official site reports.

    Analysis: The transaction can be taken as an indication that Wright will serve as Pittsburgh's starting kicker for Monday's game against Washington, with Chris Boswell (hip) having been downgraded to doubtful. Wright spent training camp with the Steelers back in 2019, and it looks like he's trending toward his NFL debut.

  • Likely Pittsburgh kicker in Week 13

    The Steelers are expected to elevate Wright from the practice squad to serve as their kicker Monday against Washington, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    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. During his collegiate career, Wright converted 55 of 71 field-goal attempts (77.5 percent), with a long of 50 yards.
