The Pittsburgh Steelers have signed veteran kicker and NFL journeyman Matthew Wright, the team announced Wednesday. Wright has been with the Steelers on a rotating basis over the past couple of seasons, having first signed a contract with the black and gold as an UDFA in the 2019 NFL Draft. The terms of the deal have not yet been announced, though one can assume it’s a minimum deal.
Wright has occasionally filled the void at kicker amidst occasional absences for starter Chris Boswell, having played seven career games for the Steelers. He went 16-of-18 on field goal attempts over those seven games, good for an 88.
