Jordan Wright expected to miss season-opener vs. Miami (OH)

Chris Rodriguez will not be the only Kentucky football player absent from the Wildcats’ season-opener against Miami (Oh.). Matt Jones shared on Monday morning’s Kentucky Sports Radio that Jordan Wright is also expected to be suspended one game for an undisclosed off-the-field issue.

Friday afternoon Jones revealed that Rodriguez is expected to be suspended “either three or four games” to start the season. The final determination will be made this week. The suspension of Wright is related to Rodriguez’s non-DUI related off-the-field issue.

Jordan Wright is one of three Super Senior starters for Brad White’s Kentucky defense.
