Chris Wright brings size, splash plays, and edge-setting punch to ACU’s defense
Chris Wright is a 6-4, 250-pound redshirt senior linebacker/defensive front piece for Abilene Christian who has been a back-to-back All-UAC selection and has started all 27 games of his ACU career.[1][12][15] In the 2024 season, he logged 84 tackles, 11 tackles for loss, 3 sacks, and 2 forced fumbles, which is the kind of disruptive production that says he can finish plays, not just chase them.[15] The fit is easy to love: he plays with proven toughness, lives in the backfield, and brings veteran credibility to a defense that values physical, assignment-sound enforcers.[1][15]
