Mike Wright Jr. brings dual-threat juice and veteran versatility to ECU
In the 2025 season, Mike Wright Jr. gave East Carolina a low-usage but high-upside QB option: he completed 3 of 7 passes for 13 yards and added 72 rushing yards on 20 carries, plus 6 catches for 39 yards, showing he can be deployed in creative ways. The 6-foot-4, 198-pound redshirt senior is a well-traveled veteran with experience at Vanderbilt, Mississippi State, Northwestern, and ECU, which usually signals football IQ and adaptability. His fit is best for teams that want mobility, gadget flexibility, and a steady, mature presence more than a pure volume passer.
