  Last fall, Wright was on the verge of earning some run in Nebraska's secondary when he suffered a season-ending knee injury during camp. A frustrating outcome for a young player NU coaches are high on, no doubt, but Wright came back and impressed again this spring despite doing it mostly at a new position. Wright is a unique player on the roster because he possesses a defensive back's skill set with the frame (6-foot-4 and 220 pounds) of a pass-rusher. As it turns out, defensive coordinator Erik Chinander and company have a position for just that type of player. Wright and freshman Isaac Gifford - if there were one player on the roster who didn't make this list but perhaps should have, it might be Gifford - started grooming this spring to back up senior JoJo Domann in the outside linebacker/nickel spot that Domann has played very well the past two years. Wright and Domann are much different players frame-wise, but both feel good about their ability to run with receivers and play in coverage. Wright put that on display during an open April practice when he ran with slot receiver Samori Toure up the middle of the field and made a leaping, twisting, one-handed interception. - Lincoln Journal Star
