The full breakdown

Wright finished with a 65.2 grade driven by an up-and-down day in the run game balanced by positive special teams snaps. He made an early impact catching a third-down flat route to move the chains (Q1 11:53) and later delivered a standout insert lead block on Jahmyr Gibbs' 1-yard touchdown run (Q4 15:00). However, his run blocking was marred by an offensive holding penalty in the red zone (Q2 10:48) and a failure to seal the edge on a critical fourth-and-1 stop (Q4 08:37). Steady wedge blocking on two long kickoff returns prevented further downward movement on his overall grade.
