Tight end Brock Wright isn’t going anywhere. According to a report from NFL Network, the Detroit Lions have opted to match the San Francisco 49ers’ offer sheet for Wright, meaning he’ll now be under contract with the Lions on a three-year, $12 million with reportedly $6 million guaranteed.

UPDATE: The Lions have confirmed this.

The Lions originally offered Wright a one-year, $2.985 million restricted free agent tender. However, that tender allowed Wright to search elsewhere for a better deal. That’s when the 49ers made their offer, which Wright signed. After that, the Lions had two options: sign Wright to the exact same deal or let him go to the 49ers with no compensation in return.

We don’t quite know the full details of Wright’s contract—though I outlined a potential breakdown here. Regardless, it’s clear the Lions value the work Wright does as their No. 2 tight end. Wright played over 1,000 snaps for the Lions over the past two seasons, with his primary job being a blocker in the run game.
