Wright still on wrong end of deal

Posted:

Reported By Cory Curtis, Sports Director - bio | email

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -

It's Day three of training camp for the Tennessee Titans and there is still no sign of rookie first round pick Kendall Wright. The 20^th pick of the NFL Draft is one of only two first round picks to remain unsigned. The other is the Jaguars Justin Blackman, also a wide receiver.

Wright is expected to get a deal worth roughly $8.2-million over four years, the sticking point seems to be just how much of that money will be guaranteed.

The Titans remain frustrated, but optimistic about negotiations and Wright's holdout ending soon.
