Matthew Wright: Sent back to practice squad
Matthew Wright reverted to Tennessee's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.Wright was elevated from the Titans' practice squad ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale against Houston with Nick Folk (abdomen) unable to play. Wright made both of his field-goal attempts -- a 35-yarder and a 38-yarder -- in the contest and didn't attempt any extra points. The veteran placekicker also saw action in two games with Kansas City and in one game with San Francisco during the campaign, finishing a collective 15-for-16 on field-goal attempts (his only miss came from 59 yards out) and 6-for-6 on point-after tries. Given his success in all three of his stops this season, Wright could be an appealing option if any playoff team needs to replace its kicker at any point during the postseason.

Matthew Wright: Let go by KC
The Chiefs waived Matthew Wright on Saturday.Wright's departure from Kansas City comes as a corresponding move to Harrison Butker (knee) being activated off injured reserve. Wright filled in for Butker during the final two weeks of the latter's absence and went 8-for-9 on field-goal tries, including 1-for-2 from 50-plus yards, while also converting both his extra-point attempts. Wright's overall success this season -- he also went 3-for-3 on field-goal tries earlier in the campaign in one game with the 49ers -- should make him one of the most desirable options should another organization have a sudden need for a placekicker.
