Life in the NFL can change rapidly, as demonstrated by kicker Matthew Wright's recent release from the Kansas City Chiefs. Just days after a standout performance, where he successfully made four field goals in a crucial win over the Chargers, Wright found himself without a team.
His last kick not only secured the victory but also clinched the AFC West division for the Chiefs. Despite being named AFC special teams player of the week, Wright's release highlights the harsh realities of the league, where even top performers can quickly become available for other teams.
