Omar Wright is known for one thing: speed. Despite being weak as an arthritic old man, as dumb as a bag of rocks and poisoning hands made almost entirely out of butter, Wright has managed to maintain his high status as an elite NSFL running back through pure speed. This is soon to change, however. Reporters were informed that Wright was displeased by his lack of long yardage carries, a hallmark of his season one career in Orange County, where he set the record for longest run four times over. Wright has informed reporters that while he believes his speed is good enough to make these long plays, his strength is what is holding him back. Wright attests that he is unable to break tackles close to the line of scrimmage, resulting in him being brought down before he can sprint off into the open field. This season Wright has been working extensively with weights and other strength training techniques to insure his ability to break tackles which will in turn allow him to break off into open field and make the long yardage plays that he was known as in the past. This will also make Wright a much more improved north-south runner, as he will be able to more effectively penetrate the middle of the field rather than having to run around defenders. In a team situation where there is no strong running back to give goal line touches like there was in OC, improving as a downhill rusher will greatly add to Philly's sole running backs arsenal.
