Jordan Wright expected to return vs. South Carolina

One of Kentucky’s top pass-rushers is expected to return to the lineup for the first road trip of the 2021 season. Mark Stoops said during Monday’s press conference that Jordan Wright will be active when the Wildcats travel to Williams-Brice Stadium to take on the South Carolina Gamecocks.

A minor injury sidelined Wright for Saturday’s 28-23 win over Chattanooga. Kentucky could have used his explosiveness. The Wildcats recorded nine QB hurries but failed to sack the Mocs.
