Ole Miss tight end Dae’Quan Wright continues his meteoric rise this offseason with NFL evaluators keeping tabs on the former Rebels offensive weapon.

Wright, an honorable mention All-America and second-team All-SEC selection in 2025, has become a hot commodity in NFL circles following a strong season last fall along with his pre-draft process.

He participated in position drills during Ole Miss’ Pro Day this week after posting solid numbers during the 2026 NFL Combine.

In 2025, Wright finished the season with 36 receptions for 634 yards and four TDs. The Perry, Georgia, native appeared in 48 games, with 30 starts at tight end, at Ole Miss and Virginia Tech.

“I think today went really well. Being back in Oxford and out there with all the guys was a lot of fun,” Wright said. “My toughness and football IQ are my two best attributes, but my I’ve really focused on taking care of my body.

“I want to make sure that as I go through this process that I can just be as close as to 100 percent as possible. The best ability is availability.”

Now, he’s been labeled the “best tight end in the draft after the catch,” according to PFF, where he has NFL decision-makers keeping tabs.
