Tim Wright Coming on Strong For Patriots
Visitors to the New England Patriots locker room might notice that one row of lockers has Rob Gronkowski on the far left, Tim Wright on the far right, with quarterback Tom Brady in the middle.
The setup is especially topical to pass along this week because the two-tight end offense was a big part of the team’s most recent victory, with Wright breaking through with his best performance since joining the team Aug. 26 in the surprising Logan Mankins trade with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
With Gronkowski and Wright each scoring a touchdown, it marked the first time since the 2012 season-opener that the Patriots had two tight ends score in a game.
“We complement each other well, we use our strengths to our advantage,” Wright said. “He’s a bigger guy (6-foot-6, 265 pounds) and more physical and I’m a little smaller (6-4, 235) but I’m quicker in certain aspects. It’s a good counter for an offense to have both different types of tight ends on the field.”
