Impact The rookie fourth-round pick came into the game following starter Jeff Wilson, taking his first carry with 11:10 remaining in the second quarter. Wright proceeded to quickly rack up 21 yards on those first three touches, then recorded a six-yard touchdown on his fourth rush attempt. The Tennessee product subsequently tallied a game-long rush of 14 yards, and his body of work was highly encouraging overall for a professional debut. Wright should be in for another solid workload in the Dolphins' second preseason game against the Commanders on Aug. 17 if Raheem Mostert and De'Von Achane continue to be handled with caution for that contest.

The former Tennessee standout seems an ideal fit for coach Mike McDaniel's scheme, though it's hard to picture him receiving many rushing opportunities unless at least one of Raheem Mostert or De'Von Achane end up missing time.
