    Shot July 1st by ex boyfriend of Wright's girlfriend but expected to recover fully. Story doesn't even mention he played for Steelers his rookie season (no snaps). I was surprised he was only with Steelers for 1 year because I distinctly remember him playing and wearing a Steelers uni - must have taken lots of pre-season snaps. To show how awesome he was, he was replaced the following year by Tee Martin as the 3rd string Steeler QB. Also along with Bubby Brister (who actually contributed a bit for Denver), Wright got a SB ring as 3rd string QB with the Giants when they defeated the unbeaten Pats in the 2007-2008 SB. Wright had 0 snaps for the Giants that year - same as with his rookie season with Steelers.

    So you are saying he didn't really have a shot while playing in the NFL? :tequila:
