Read EvaluationMatt Tate | Prep Redzone Scout
Wright is an intriguing corner for Valor. He measures in at 6’0 182-pounds. Last season, he had 41 total tackles (28 solo, 13 assisted), 3 INT, 7 PD, and 1 FF. Wright has good athletic ability due to very good change of direction, acceleration, good jumping, and speed. Demonstrates a good job jamming receivers at the line of scrimmage and re-routing them. Controlled back pedal with hip fluidity to match receivers breaking out of their stem. Wright sticks to them like glue, not allowing much separation. If they do, he uses his very good closing quickness and timing to create incompletions. He has also shown an ability to create plays in run support. With strong camp performances, look for him to gain more traction!
