Virginia Tech sophomore tight end Dae’Quan Wright appeared to be a building block for the Hokies, but he announced Tuesday he was leaving the program.

The 6-foot-4, 249-pounder caught 28 passes for 366 yards this season, and ended his two-year career with Virginia Tech after catching 47 passes for 574 yards.

Wright caught four passes in four different games this past season, including four catches for 77 yards in a 24-17 loss against Purdue on Sept. 9. He ended the season with three receptions for 64 yards in a 55-17 blowout win over Virginia.

Wright was projected to be a wide receiver by Rivals.com coming out of Perry (Ga.) High. He was a three-star prospect with seven scholarship offers.
