Wright was elevated from the Lions' practice squad Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
T.J. Hockenson (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, so Wright will join the active roster to provide additional depth. The Notre Dame graduate has yet to debut in the NFL.

Wright was waived by the Lions on Tuesday, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Detroit opted to keep only two tight ends on the roster, but it seems likely that the team will find depth through waivers. Meanwhile, Wright could be a candidate for the practice squad.

Wright caught one pass for 11 yards during Friday's preseason loss to the Colts.
EDGE Analysis
Wright may be the favorite for the No. 3 job at tight end considering he clearly played ahead of Alize Mack. However, it wouldn't be a surprise if the Lions were to bring in another tight end as other teams imminently trim their rosters to 53 players in the coming days.

Wright has signed with the Lions as an undrafted free agent.
EDGE Analysis
Wright and Jake Hausmann are both heading to Detroit as UDFAs, setting them up to compete over limited depth opportunities. After excelling as a blocker during his time at Notre Dame, Wright may now need to impress on special teams in order to stick with the Lions.
