Wright (coach's decision) will not play Saturday against the Raiders, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Harrison Butker is good to go, making Wright -- who was elevated from the practice squad Friday -- an unneeded luxury Saturday. It's entirely possible the team may have to follow the same cadence next week depending on how Butker's back is feeling after Week 18 action.

The Chiefs elevated Wright from the practice squad Friday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The fact that Kansas City is using one of its two allotted practice-squad elevations on Wright signals that Harrison Butker (back) -- who is listed as questionable -- may not play Saturday against the Raiders. If Butker is placed on the inactive list ahead of Saturday's 4:30 p.m. ET kickoff, Wright would step in to handle kicking duties for Kansas City. For fantasy leagues still playing out Week 18 that include a kicker spot, Wright could be worthy of a pickup, given that he'll be tied to one of the NFL's most prolific offenses. Moreover, unlike several teams playing this week, the Chiefs have something to play for, as a win over the Raiders or a Bills loss to the Patriots would lock Kansas City in as the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoffs.

The Chiefs signed Wright to their practice squad Friday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Harrison Butker currently listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Raiders due to a back issue, Wright will now provide additional kicking depth just in case the latter won't be available in Week 18. The 26-year-old appeared in two games for Kansas City earlier this year, converting three of his four field-goal attempts and all eight extra-point tries in that span. Wright then kicked for Pittsburgh across four games later in the season and went 12-for-14 on field-goal tries and 7-for-7 on extra-point attempts.

The Chiefs brought in Wright for a tryout Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wright has spent the majority of the season either unsigned or on practice squads, though he's appeared in six games as a fill-in kicker for both Kansas City and Pittsburgh this season. The 26-year-old has been a reliable option, going 15-of-18 on his field-goal attempts while converting all 15 extra-point tries this season. With Chiefs starting kicker Harrison Butker dealing back spasms, coach Andy Reid said "there's a chance" the team could add an extra kicker ahead of Saturday's regular-season finale versus Las Vegas, according to Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star. Wright's familiarity with the team from when he filled in with Butker out due to an ankle injury for two games should make him a top candidate to serve as the team's potential emergency kicker Week 18.

Wright was waived by the Steelers on Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Chris Boswell was activated off injured reserve following a lengthy absence due to a groin injury, making Wright's roster spot redundant. It was a solid stint for the fourth-year kicker, as Wright converted 12 of his 14 field-goal attempts, including going 6-of-7 from 40-plus yards. Expect Wright to wind up on a practice squad before season's end.

Wright converted all four of his field-goal attempts while making his lone extra-point try during the Steelers' 19-16 win over Atlanta on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Wright's first field goal of Sunday's matchup ricocheted off the right upright before going in, but the 26-year-old was perfect for a third consecutive week to lead the Steelers to a second straight win. Over his last three appearances, he's made all 10 of his field-goal attempts while converting all five of his extra-point tries. Chris Boswell (groin) is eligible to return as early as next week, but the Steelers haven't yet indicated when they expect him to be back in action. Until Boswell is healthy, expect Wright to retain kicking duties for Pittsburgh.

Wright converted all three of his field-goal attempts while making his lone extra-point try during the Steelers' 24-17 win over the Colts on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Wright missed two field-goal attempts during his Steelers debut against the Saints in Week 10, but he's converted all 10 of his kicks over the last two weeks, including a 52-yard attempt during Monday's primetime win. He'll likely continue to serve as Pittsburgh's kicker next week against Atlanta, but his role after Week 13 likely depends on when Chris Boswell (groin) is cleared to return from injured reserve.

Wright converted all three of his field-goal attempts while making all three of his extra-point tries during the Steelers' 37-30 loss to Cincinnati on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Wright missed two field-goal attempts during last week's win over the Saints, but he had a chance to redeem himself in Week 11. The 26-year-old had plenty of opportunities against the Bengals, and he drilled six kicks during the narrow loss. Chris Boswell (groin) will miss at least two more games, so Wright should have the chance to continue serving as the Steelers' kicker after Sunday's strong performance.

Head coach Mike Tomlin confirmed Tuesday that Wright would retain kicking duties for the Steelers in the team's Week 11 game against the Bengals, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wright will get another shot at redemption after misfiring from 39 and 48 yards out on two of his four field-goal attempts in this past Sunday's 20-10 win over the Saints. The 26-year-old has converted at a respectable 83.3 percent rate from the field over parts of three NFL seasons, so the Steelers are hopeful that the erratic showing against the Saints was more of an outlier performance. The Steelers will have an opening for Wright for at least three more games after Chris Boswell (groin) was placed on injured reserve ahead of last week's game.

Wright converted two of four field-goal attempts while making both of his extra-point tries during the Steelers' 20-10 win over the Saints on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Wright handled kicking duties for Pittsburgh in Week 10 after Chris Boswell (groin) was placed on injured reserve. Wright made his two kicks in the first half but struggled after halftime and missed a 39-yard field-goal attempt in the third quarter before missing a 48-yard try in the fourth. The 26-year-old made three of four field-goal attempts while converting all eight of his extra-point tries over two games with Kansas City earlier in the year, and it's not yet clear whether he'll continue to serve as the team's kicker in Boswell's absence given his performance against New Orleans.
