In his first game, Florida Atlantic receiver Willie Wright scored a touchdown that was the longest in school history.
He leads the team in catches, receiving yards and is likely the fastest player on the roster.
Still, there is something more that makes him special. At 5-foot-8 and 155 pounds, he hardly resembles a player willing to speak up in the locker room. Wright has shrugged off the boyish appearance to grow into one of the team leaders just a few months into his playing career.
“I’m more impressed with him off the field as far as the way he carries himself,” receiver John Franklin III said.
