Wright caught two of two targets for 51 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 37-30 win over Green Bay.
Wright returned from a week off in the COVID-19 protocols and again logged over 70 percent of the offensive snaps while serving as the Lions' top tight end in the absence of T.J. Hockenson (finger). While most of Wright's production came on a flea flicker in the third quarter when the tight end snuck behind the defense for a 36-yard touchdown, the Notre Dame product is continuing to show that he can be a little more than just a blocker at the pro level. In total, he finishes the 2021 campaign with 12 catches for 117 yards and two touchdowns on 17 targets despite not seeing regular action until the second half of the year. Considering he will now be an exclusive-rights free agent, Wright is a strong candidate to return to Detroit in 2022 as a depth option behind Hockenson.
