The Kansas City Chiefs are releasing kicker Matthew Wright as Harrison Butker is set to return this week and is expected to play in the Week 15 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. A week after Wright successfully kicked a game-winning 31-yard field goal ...

That means Matthew Wright, who kicked four field goals including the game-winning kick as time expired for the Chiefs last week, will go on waivers. Wright was named AFC special teams player of the week this week and may get claimed by some team that views him as a kicking upgrade.

You can't claim the Kansas City Chiefs have had kicker problems this season, because anyone they put on the field has found success in crunch time. The Chiefs have had three different kickers make a game-winning field goal as time expired in the fourth quarter this season.
