Kendall Wright says he wasn’t upset Titans picked Marcus Mariota

A video of Titans wide receivers Kendall Wright and Justin Hunter reacting to the team’s selection of Marcus Mariota with the second overall pick of the 2015 draft has made the rounds in recent days with many commenting on the fact that neither wideout seems to be thrilled about the team’s choice.

Wright shakes his head a bit after the announcement while Hunter sits down in a chair, but Wright says that the outside read on his reaction is incorrect. He said any resignation on Hunter’s behalf is because he lost a bet to Wright about what the pick would be and that his own reaction was subdued because he’d always assumed Mariota would be the guy.
