The Buffalo News reports the Buffalo Bills' release last week of WR Rodney Wright came shortly after he was charged with driving while intoxicated following a three-car accident in Hamburg, N.Y. Police and team sources said Wright was also charged with driving without a license and making an unsafe lane change after refusing a Breathalyzer test at the scene. Wright's vehicle apparently struck the one ahead of him, sending that vehicle toward oncoming traffic, while he attempted to change lanes. The receiver could face up to three years in prison for violating the California agreement if he's convicted in the Hamburg case.

Yeah, you know why he didn't have a license? A week after he got drafted (7th round), he committed a hit-and-run felony about 2 1/2 miles from my house. The cops didn't find him until the next day, so they couldn't test him for DUI. No one was seriously hurt, but the vehicle he hit did catch fire. It was quite spectacular.

No big loss for the Bills, really. He was an undersized special teamer. The only thing he was decent at was returning kicks, and he wasn't exceptional.
