Bills CB Wright takes Uber from Chicago to Buffalo

[DetDannyWilliams]

Wright found himself stranded at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport Sunday, so instead of waiting for the next available flight and taking the chance of being late to a voluntary practice Monday, Wright took an Uber.
According to Tamerat Berhe (https://twitter.com/TamBerhe/status/872193742672846848), Wright's agent, the 550-mile trip cost Wright $932.08, which included a $300 tip.

Well McDermott's gotta like his effort.

Did he ever hear of a car rental?

Why drive when you're rich enough to have the luxury of sitting back and enjoy the ride ( this isn't an argument about rich players becoming poor )

I'd of gone and picked him up for less!

That's a man who wanted to be here. Love it.

Can't believe how much play this is getting, it's all over the intrawebs. Good for him (and us) for getting some positive pub.

And good for the driver...

Isn't Uber, Lyft etc. illegal outside NYC? Maybe Wright's an accessory... :tip:

Apparently he considered that, but wanted to sleep so he could be productive at practice.

Let's just hope he can actually play well.
