Involved in bad car accident Coach Mike Norvell said Tuesday that Wright (undisclosed) "is getting better and better every day," Logan B. Robinson of Sports Illustrated reports.

Impact Norvell said the car accident that Wright was involved in this past spring was "catastrophic" and "wasn't under his control," but the wideout appears to be progressing well through rehab. However, it remains unclear if he'll be able to suit up this season.

Appears to be unavailable Friday Wright (leg) was not warming up with the rest of the receivers ahead of Friday's game against Louisville, Brendan Sonnone of 247sports.com reports.

Impact Wright appears to still be on the mend from a leg injury he suffered from a car accident back in March. The redshirt senior came to Tallahassee in the offseason after spending the last three years at West Virginia. He most recently put up 63 catches for 688 yards and five touchdowns in 2021 and could be an instant impact player once he's ready to play.

Impact Wright suffered undisclosed injuries during a car accident in March, but the wideout has been able to return to practice. The 5-foot-10 receiver transferred to Florida State after two productive seasons with West Virginia, and the junior will look to carve out a role for himself in the Seminoles offense.

Impact Wright was recently involved in a car accident and is expected to miss extended time due to the injuries suffered. However, it appears he's making an effort to stay involved with the team. It remains to be seen when he will gain clearance to retake the field, but it seems unlikely to come until at least fall camp.

Involved in car accident Wright (undisclosed) will reportedly miss extended time after he was involved in a severe car accident, Curt Weiler of the Tallahassee Democrat reports.

Impact Wright, who transferred to Florida State following three seasons with West Virginia, will be inactive for an extended period of time. The junior wideout recorded 110 catches for 1,241 yards during his final two seasons with the Mountaineers. Head coach Mike Norvell stated that he is glad that Wright is alive given the severity of the crash. The road to making an impact at Florida State just got tougher for Wright who will look to bounce back despite the challenge.

Returns kickoff for touchdown Wright pulled down three catches for 59 yards and returned the opening kickoff 90 yards for a touchdown in Saturday's 66-0 win over Long Island University.

Impact Wright is a dynamic player as it was just a week ago when he set a school-record with 217 kickoff return yards against Maryland. He also had a team-high 11 targets in that game which shows you that he can handle a busy workload. Against the Sharks, he started with a bang, taking the opening kickoff 90 yards for a touchdown. Against a tough Virginia Tech squad next week, Wright could be targeted early and often.

Team-high 12 targets in loss Wright grabbed six catches for 42 yards on a team-high 12 targets in Saturday's 30-24 loss at Maryland.

Impact Wright commanded double-digit targets for the third time in his career. Both times he did this in 2020, he had 100-yard receiving games, so he likely underperformed against the Terrapins based on the volume of throws which went his way. He also had a lost fumble which was one of four turnovers for the Mountaineers. Wright should continue to receive a healthy amount of targets when West Virginia hosts Long Island next week.
