Wright is expected to be signed to the Patriots' practice squad, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wright could be a possibility to compete with Chad Ryland as New England's starting kicker, though nothing is set in stone yet. The 27-year-old was let go from Atlanta's practice squad Tuesday and may have a new home with the Patriots. Wright appeared in six games between the Chiefs and the Steelers in 2022, going 12-for-14 on field-goal attempts.

The Falcons released Wright from the practice squad Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Wright signed with Atlanta last week with Younghoe Koo battling a back injury, which he ultimately played through against New Orleans. The 27-year-old Wright will look for an opportunity elsewhere.

Atlanta signed Wright to the practice squad Thursday, Scott Bair of the Falcons' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wright joins the Falcons' practice squad after Younghoe Koo (back) missed Wednesday's practice. Depending on Koo's status for Week 12, Wright could be asked to make a spot start Sunday versus the Saints.

The 49ers cut Wright from their practice squad Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Wright signed with San Francisco's practice squad Sept. 4, but his time with the unit will ultimately be cut short. He was being kept as a backup option for starting kicker Jake Moody. Wright will now be on the hunt for a new opportunity.

The 49ers signed Wright to their practice squad Monday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

With rookie third-rounder Jake Moody (quadriceps) currently questionable for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh, San Francisco could call on Wright to serve as their starting kicker in Week 1. In the meantime, he'll keep his leg warm on the practice squad.

Wright has been added to the Chiefs' practice squad, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wright was waived by the Panthers ahead of Tuesday's final roster cuts. He was brought in to Kansas City for kicking insurance, as Jake Moody (quadriceps) is uncertain for Week 1. The 27-year-old suited up for six games in 2022 between the Chiefs and Steelers.

Wright was waived by the Panthers on Saturday, Darin Gantt of the team's official website reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wright was brought in by Carolina early in training camp to fill in for Eddy Pineiro (groin) while he was sidelined. It was made clear that Pineiro's job was not on the line, so Wright was simply there as a filler. He will now use his time there as a reference for other teams as he begins to seek out new employment opportunities.

Wright signed a contract with the Panthers on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Wright will get a chance in Carolina, because the expected starter, Eddy Pineiro, is currently dealing with a groin injury. Wright spent time filling in with both Kansas City and Pittsburgh last season, suiting up six times and combining to make 15 of his 18 field-goal attempts, as well as all 15 of his extra-point tries. Although he is unlikely to unseat Pineiro, he'll now possibly get an opportunity to audition for other teams during the preseason.

The Chiefs cut Wright from their practice squad Monday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

When Harrison Butker was dealing with back spasms during the regular season, Wright made two appearances for the Chiefs, connecting on 3-of-4 field-goal attempts and all eight of his extra-point tries. However, Wright hasn't played in a game since Week 13 and will lose his spot on the practice squad ahead of the Super Bowl. In a corresponding move, Kansas City re-signed Jerrion Ealy to its practice squad.

Wright reverted to the Chiefs' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

EDGE Analysis

Wright was brought up from the practice squad to serve as Kansas City's emergency kicker behind starter Harrison Butker, who was considered questionable to play with a back issue. However, with Butker available, the practice-squad kicker was ultimately ruled inactive pregame. Wright could be elevated again if Butker's health status either worsens or remains the same heading into the Chiefs' first playoff game during the divisional round of the playoffs.
