Rookie tight end Dae’Quan Wright, just signed by the Cleveland Browns, is reportedly being waived to return to college football at LSU — a stunning move made possible by a Louisiana court ruling that temporarily allows NFL-signed players to transfer back to college.

Originally drafted by the Eagles and picked up by Cleveland off waivers, he’s now leveraging a legal loophole created by a recent injunction tied to LSU’s head coach Lane Kiffin. The NCAA has been fighting this precedent, but for now, Wright is the first player to actually jump through this window — leaving Browns coach Kevin Stefanski stunned by the sudden pivot.
