October 27, 2020
Jaylen Wright combines All-American track speed with running back production at Southern Durham. He's committed to Tennessee.

Jaylen Wright runs a 6.25 in the 55 meters, one of the fastest times in the nation. That track speed translates to the football field, where he averaged over 10 yards per carry and rushed for 901 yards as a junior at Southern Durham High School in North Carolina. His explosiveness earned a commitment to Tennessee, where he could contribute in multiple roles.
