Mother's football background motivation for WR

Dylan Wright, who's a major target of the Arkansas Razorbacks, is an ESPN 4-star prospect, the No. 25 receiver and the No. 145 overall prospect in the nation.

His drive to be the best is fueled by his love for his mother.

"She means everything to me," Wright said.

His mother played flag football when he was younger, thus where he learned to play the sport.

"She's who taught me how to play football because she use to play tight end," Wright said. "She's the one that taught me everything."

Wright, 6-3, 188 pounds, of West Mesquite (Texas) has more than 30 scholarship offers from schools like the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, Texas, Alabama, Florida, Florida State, Texas A&M, Georgia, Michigan, LSU and others.
