Receiver Jarius Wright‘s tenure with the Vikings may not be over, after all. ESPN’s Courtney Cronin tweets that the organization is interested in bring back the 28-year-old. The team released Wright yesterday, freeing up $2.64 MM in 
cap space (while counting towards $2.12 MM in dead money).
In 2017, the slot receiver notched 18 receptions for 198 yards and two touchdowns. He added another six catches for 107 yards in two postseason games. Drafted by the team in the fourth round in 2012, Wright logged 153 receptions for 2,039 yards and 10 touchdowns.
Wright was a solid contributor with the Vikings and earned a 75.1 grade from Pro Football Focus. If Wright does return to Minnesota, he’ll likely regain his spot on the depth chart behind Adam Thielen, Stefon Diggs, and Laquon Treadwell.
If they can get him back that would be great. Treadwell still doesn’t seem to get it, and Floyd was a waste of time last year. If you can’t get Wright back there’s still some options out there, but he’d be my first choice. The guy just makes the play when needed. He never seems to complain about being passed over for opportunities, he just does his job.
