Former Tennessee Vols running back Jaylen Wright is taking his talents to South Beach. The Miami Dolphins took the talented runner with the 120th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. The Dolphins actually traded with the Philadelphia Eagles to go get Wright and paid a high price to do it: a 2025 third rounder.

Wright steps into a situation where won’t be called on to be the man. In fact, he will step in as the third running back in a crowded and talented running back room. Raheem Mostert and De’Von Achane were perhaps the best running back tandem in the country last year.
