Chiefs Linked to Low-Cost Inquiry for Dolphins RB Jaylen Wright

Fowler casts Wright as a late-round flier to boost Kansas City’s lagging run game.

Overview

  • ESPN's Jeremy Fowler suggested the Chiefs should call the Dolphins about acquiring running back Jaylen Wright.
  • Wright, a 2024 fourth-round pick, recorded 68 carries for 249 yards as a rookie and has yet to play in the 2025 regular season.
  • De'Von Achane leads Miami's backfield with rookie Ollie Gordon II as the primary backup, leaving Wright without snaps so far.
  • Kansas City opened 1-2 with Isiah Pacheco and Kareem Hunt averaging 3.7 and 3.5 yards per carry, and Patrick Mahomes has been their best rusher to date.
  • Coverage frames a potential move as inexpensive—possibly a sixth- or seventh-round pick—with no indication of formal trade talks.
