Jordan Wright Provides Energy, Playmaking in Homecoming Win over Florida

Kentucky won twice this week. They collected the first W when Jordan Wright was cleared on Thursday to return to the field. That paved the way for a Top 25 win in Wright’s home state Saturday night in The Swamp, his third victory over the Florida Gators.

“It felt great, first game, my home opener back home, so I had to show out.” And boy, did he.

The super senior outside linebacker from Ft. Lauderdale tallied six tackles, two for loss, a sack, forced fumble and an interception. Brad White’s best havoc playmaker did even more than that for the Kentucky defense.
