Back to practice squad
Wright reverted to the Chiefs' practice squad Saturday, per the NFL's transaction log.
ANALYSIS
Wright was the Chiefs' placekicker for Friday's game against the Raiders. He went 4-for-5 on field-goal attempts and converted his lone extra-point try as he paced Kansas City to a 19-17 win over Las Vegas. With Harrison Butker (knee) on injured reserve and Spencer Shrader nursing a hamstring injury, Wright could be the Chiefs' starting kicker for Week 14 against the Chargers on Sunday, Dec. 8.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
With Matt Prater gone, Wright will compete with veteran Randy Bullock for kicking duties in Detroit this season. With 107 games played for the 31-year-old Bullock compared to four 2020 cameos for the 25-year-old Wright, experience is not on the latter's side. Wright at least took advantage of the limited action he saw with the Steelers last year, making four of four field goal attempts - including two from beyond 40 yards - and all seven of his PATs. In the end, he may be a long shot to prevail, but he does have a chance.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be active in Week 4
Kansas City signed Wright to its practice squad Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
With Harrison Butker sidelined by an ankle injury, Kansas City had turned to Matt Ammendola as their kicker for the last two weeks. However, Ammendola struggled in Week 3 against the Colts, missing a field-goal attempt as well as an extra point. Should Butker not be ready for Week 4, Wright will be activated from the practice squad to serve as the starting kicker. Most recently, Wright played for the Jaguars and made 21 of his 24 field-goal attempts in 2021.
