NegativeValueNov 21, 2025Legendary Upside

Wright is a thin emergency option with limited upside; last week he had 64% route participation, 16% targets per route run, and 0.32 yards per route run. With Cole Leporta sidelined, the offense is condensing targets to St. Brown and Williams rather than distributing to Wright. DFS pricing at $3,000 is considered expensive for Wright; the source prefers cheaper tight end alternatives this week and views him as a break-glass emergency option only, noting he hasn't been a good player historically.
