Will enter transfer portal
Wright will enter the transfer portal, 247Sports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Wright logged 28 receptions for 366 yards (13.1 averaged per catch) across his 12 games played during 2023. Among tight ends currently on the market, there are few as proven as he is.

Looks good to go Saturday
Wright (ankle) appears set to play Saturday against Louisville, Andy Bitter of Tech Sidelines reports.
ANALYSIS
Wright doesn't appear to have any limitations in warmups after full practicing earlier in the week, so it seems the sophomore tight end will be good to go. He enters the day with 17 grabs for 202 yards to his name and will aim to add to that total.
Nov 1, 2023
Full participant Wednesday
Wright (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Andy Bitter of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Despite leaving Saturday's game against Syracuse with an ankle injury, Wright was able to go through a full practice workload, although he appeared hindered. The sophomore tight end, who has logged 17 receptions for 202 yards across eight games, will be monitored heading into Saturday's game against Louisville.
Sep 18, 2023
Modest production in loss
Wright caught 4 of 5 targets for 21 yards during Saturday's 35-16 defeat against Rutgers.
ANALYSIS
Fresh off the heels of a strong display, Wright tied for second in targets for the Hokies, catching all but one. With starting tight end Nick Gallo out for the year (knee), the sophomore tight end will maximize his opportunities this season. Next week's matchup will be on the road against Marshall.
Sep 12, 2023
Big outing in loss
Wright totaled four receptions (on seven targets) for 77 yards during Saturday's 24-17 loss to Purdue.
ANALYSIS
Wright led the Hokies with 77 receiving yards as Virginia Tech fell just short against Purdue on Saturday. The sophomore tight end saw increased utilization down the stretch in 2022, totaling seven receptions for 93 yards across his last four outings. Following Nick Gallo's season-ending injury, Wright is likely to see an expanded workload with the Hokies this season.
Aug 16, 2023
Back at practice
Wright is back participating in the Hokies' fall practices, Andy Bitter of The Athletic reports Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Wright had missed fall camp up to this point, but the tight end is back participating and appears to be fully healthy. The sophomore complied 19 catches for 208 yards on 28 targets last season, and is currently slated to be the Hokies' second-string tight end behind Nick Gallo.
Aug 11, 2023
Absent from training camp
Wright was unavailable for Friday's practice after also missing Tuesday's session, Andy Bitter of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
It's unclear whether Wright will miss any time to begin the regular season. However, Benji Gosnell has been taking second-team reps in Wright's absence from practice.
Oct 27, 2022
Tallies 46 yards in defeat
Wright had two catches for 46 yards in Thursday's 22-21 loss to North Carolina State.
ANALYSIS
Wright has caught at least two passes and topped 30 yards in each of the last four games and has become a constant factor in the offense. The freshman caught both his passes on back-to-back plays in what ended up being a touchdown drive for the Hokies. Look for Wright to remain involved on a weekly basis with the team not having much receiving depth behind Kaleb Smith.
