SIT

Brock Wright's recent injury status and his contested target share with Nick Muse back in the lineup make him a risky play for fantasy rosters.

Role & volume

Over the last four games, Brock Wright averaged just 9% of team targets despite playing over 60% of snaps in three out of those four contests.

Projected role

With Nick Muse now back and commanding a primary passing-game role, Wright's target share is likely to remain contested and potentially diminished.

Range (floor–ceiling)

Given his recent injury history and the competition for targets, Wright's weekly output ranges from minimal production to low-end TE2 value at best.

Risk & Opportunity Analysis (4 flags)

Offensive Context
Detroit's run-leaning play calling (PROE roughly 5 points below expected) combined with Wright's blocking-first usage (0.07 WOPR, 1.0 aDOT) caps his target-share ceiling even as his snap share climbs.
Contract Situation
Wright is playing in the final year of his contract in 2026, and Lions beat coverage has framed his backup TE job as something he has to defend every camp rather than a settled long-term role.

Usage & Volume
Snap share rose to 88% and target share to an 11% high (up from 3%) over his final four tracked outings, and Lions training-camp reporting has flagged Sam LaPorta's recurring back/snap-management issue as a path to more complementary TE work for Wright in 2026.
Injury Concerns
Wright cleared the Week 12 neck issue that briefly sidelined him and entered 2026 camp with a clean bill of health per Lions medical updates, removing the lingering recovery question.
