Former Auburn defensive lineman Gabe Wright has a new NFL home.
The Philadelphia Eagles have signed Wright to a one-year contract, the team announced via its official Twitter account.
Wright was originally drafted in the fourth round of the 2015 NFL Draft by the Lions, but his career hasn’t quite taken off yet. Wright played just 134 snaps for the Lions before being let go. After signing with the Eagles, it will be Wright’s third NFL team in as many years. He played in just five games with the Browns last season before being released two weeks ago.
During his four-year career at Auburn, Wright made 20.5 tackles for loss and six sacks.
