According to NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport, the Kansas City Chiefs have signed former Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Matthew Wright to their active roster.

The move comes after Spencer Shrader, who played two games for the Chiefs this season and went a perfect 9 of 9 in attempts for the team, was placed on the injured/reserve list with a hamstring injury.

Harrison Butker, Kansas City’s kicker for nearly eight seasons, has not returned from a knee injury that landed him on injured reserve after Week 10.

Wright played in Kansas City’s Week 13 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders, converting four of his five field goal attempts while making his only extra point attempt that day.

The 28-year-old has appeared in 26 contests for five different teams over the course of his five-year career, including seven for the Steelers.

Wright’s first regular season appearance with Pittsburgh came in 2020, when he played three games and went 11-for-11 overall. He then returned to the team for four contests in 2022 and finished 12 of 14 on field goals and 7 of 7 on extra points.

The Steelers and Chiefs will face off on Christmas Day in Week 17.
