	#17 Jarius Wright
		Pos: Wide Receiver NFL Team: MIN Injury: Probable Injury Type: ankle		Experience: Rookie College: Arkansas Height: 70 Weight: 180 Born: 11/25/1989

Summary

Wide Receiver Rank: #89All Players: #258

Wright was inactive much of the early part of his rookie season but got his chances late and performed pretty well with an expanded role. He had 22 receptions in seven games. He made plays, having 50-plus yards three times and multiple receptions all but one game he played. Wright will get a chance to start from day one for the Vikings this season. Wright is a small receiver but runs plus routes and has solid hands. He does well out of the slot but did perform well in a starting role for the Vikings last season, proving he could start. His size does cause him some issues, though, as the opposition can get physical with him to knock him off his game. He'll need to get stronger if he hopes to improve his game in the NFL.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Wright has a chance for a much bigger role, but he will still be up and down in this offense. He isn't a great fantasy play just yet but could be worth some spot starts for fantasy teams. A season with around 55 receptions for 700 yards and a few scores seems about right for Wright in his second NFL season.

comments about Jarius Wright

Notes

Jan 27 09:13 pm

Minnesota Vikings WR Jarius Wright had four dropped balls in 2012, and he had a memorable damaging missed block in the playoff game against the Green Bay Packers. Still, he has a tremendous skill set, and his role in 2013 and beyond likely hinges on the future of WR Percy Harvin with the team.
Fantasy Impact: Wright should have a bigger role from day one in 2013.

Minnesota Vikings WR Jarius Wright is expected to be featured as the team's slot receiver in Week 13 against the Green Bay Packers, and he will have a bigger role than the past with WR Percy Harvin (ankle) out again. 'I don't want to sound cocky or like I'm bragging on myself. But throughout my life, I've always been a playmaker. And I think I can bring that to this offense down the stretch.'

Nov 12 05:52 pm

Minnesota Vikings head coach Leslie Frazier would not say if WR Jarius Wright would be active for Week 12 even though he caught three passes for 65 yards and one touchdown in Week 10. Wright was active for that game because WR Percy Harvin (ankle) sat out but he is expected to return for Week 12.
Fantasy Impact: He deserves to play after last week. The Vikings need more playmakers at receiver.

Minnesota Vikings offensive coordinator Bill Musgrave plans to use the speed of WR Jarius Wright to the team's advantage early and often. 'He's quick. Very quick. I'm looking forward to finding out how his quickness is going to translate against NFL defenses,' Musgrave said. 'He's got great balance. He can get in and out of breaks. And he's lightning quick. We're hoping he's a super man-to-man beater for us.'
