Agent Drew Rosenhaus told the Associated Press that former Ole Miss tight end Dae’Quan Wright is preparing to return to Louisiana State University if he clears waivers after being released by the Cleveland Browns.
Recent NFL moves
Wright signed with the Philadelphia Eagles after the NFL draft and was later added to the Browns roster following his release on Aug. 11. He did not appear in either of Cleveland’s preseason games.
College background
Wright spent the 2024 and 2025 seasons playing under LSU coach Lane Kiffin, catching 39 passes for 635 yards and five touchdowns last season. If he rejoins the Rebels, he would become the first player in modern history to return to college football after playing in the NFL.
Potential impact
Returning to LSU would give Wright another opportunity to showcase his skills at the collegiate level and could influence future discussions about player eligibility and the transition between professional and college football.
The situation remains pending on the waiver process, and LSU has not yet confirmed the move.
