Arizona entered the season expecting the linebacker position to the be the biggest strength of their defense; injuries have changed the course of their season.

In a recent interview with Tre Tyler, who is Wright's latest replacement, the walk-on linebacker explained what it was like when he found out he was going to get playing time. 

"I was shocked. I was caught off guard. When Haden was down, I still hadn't processed. I was like: 'Whoah, I have to go in. This is my moment.'"
