Undrafted RB Owen Wright Lands Deal with Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have added depth to their backfield by signing former Baltimore Ravens running back Owen Wright. The 26-year-old Wright, who hails from Bethesda, Maryland, spent the past two years with the Ravens but appeared in just one regular-season game.

Despite his limited regular-season reps, Wright made a strong impression on Ravens fans during his preseason performances. In 2023, he finished three preseason games with 23 carries for 107 yards and a touchdown, along with three catches for 15 yards. Then in the 2024 preseason, Wright had 18 rush attempts for 52 yards and two catches for 23 yards and a touchdown.

Prior to his time in the NFL, Wright enjoyed a successful college career, totaling 1,446 yards and 23 touchdowns over five seasons at William & Mary and Monmouth. His standout senior year at Monmouth in 2022, where he scored 16 touchdowns on just 73 carries, likely played a role in the Buccaneers' decision to sign him.

Wright will now look to earn a spot on the Buccaneers' 53-man roster during the upcoming preseason, which begins on August 9 with a matchup against the Tennessee Titans and the No. 1 overall pick, Cam Ward.
