Early years
Dan Wright was born to Theo and Lena Wright. Wright didn't play any sports until his sophomore year of high school, when a big growth sprut made him the tallest person in his class. He was immediately made the team's starting center on the basketball court, with poor results at first. But after bulking up before his junior season, he broke out in a big way, leading his team in points, rebounds, and blocks in each of his last two high school seasons. After he bulked up a little more, he tried his hand at tight end for his senior season, and led his team in receptions through the first half of the season before a knee injury slowed him down. On the football field, he was known for exciting leaping catches and exception run blocking that help his running game thrive.
College career
Wright only got one scholarship from any school, a basketball one from Northwestern State in Natchitoches, LA. He played for one season of basketball, but had difficulty adjusting to the level of talent. He was given permission to try to make the football team as a walk-on. He made the team in his freshmen season, and mostly played as a field goal and goal line run blocker. He got a bit more playing time in his sophomore season, recording 12 receptions for 100 yards and a touchdown. His junior season was a breakout campaign. He was his running game's lead blocker, was second in receptions, and led the team in receiving touchdowns. His senior season was more of the same, but was slowed down in the passing game with the graduation of his previous quarterback.
