Carson Wright brings blue-collar toughness and playmaking instinct to Kentucky’s linebacker room
Carson Wright looks like a fit for teams that value disruptive, high-motor linebackers: Kentucky lists him at 5-10, 205 as a linebacker, and his Pikeville resume includes 147 tackles, 22 tackles for loss, 4 sacks, 2 interceptions, and 2 forced fumbles as a senior. He’s been praised for rare explosiveness and change-of-direction ability for his size, which helps explain why he was viewed as one of Kentucky’s top prep defenders. If you want a compact, physical second-level defender who plays with urgency and versatility, Wright is worth watching.[3][6][13]
