Browns Waive TE Wright for LSU Return

The Cleveland Browns are waiving tight end Dae'Quan Wright, who could potentially become the first player to return to college football after being on an NFL roster. Wright, 23, has a commitment in place to play for LSU in 2026 if he clears waivers. biznow.biz

Wright, who played for Ole Miss under current LSU coach Lane Kiffin, was granted an injunction for an extra year of college eligibility. He was initially signed by the Eagles as an undrafted free agent, then picked up by the Browns. Browns coach Todd Monken expressed surprise at the situation, noting he didn't return a call from Kiffin last week.
