Acme Packing Company on Dae'Quan Wright

Wright barred from NFL visits, tryouts, signings through 2026 season after LSU attempt

Tight end Dae'Quan Wright, a former Cleveland Brown, is barred from visiting, trying out with, or being signed by NFL clubs during the 2026 NFL season after attempting to return to college football at LSU. Unlike Zxavian Harris, Wright did practice with LSU's team after enrolling, but the Tigers ultimately did not add him to their 2026 roster, which was finalized 24 hours before their opening kickoff. The NFL memo clarifies that Wright cannot be signed until reserve-futures deals are handed out when teams' seasons end, treating him similarly to CFL players who are ineligible to sign until the completion of both seasons.
