Jerome Wright and Joe St. Germain Leave Team

This is pure speculation since there is nothing official in regards to this, but this was on the Twitter

Entering Fall practice, Wright was listed as the 3rd string RB. Often switching between RB and FB, he was one of the few people fighting for a spot in the RB rotation to have seen time on the field aside from Coleman and Edmunds. With the latest update to the depth chart having him down on the 4th string line, it's possible he might reevaluate his future with the team. Wright is a true sophomore who is seeing true Freshmen overtake him. Now it's also possible that he could be moving positions, but keep an eye out for what might happen with this situation. A crowded backfield can be a blessing for depth, but it can be a curse for keeping talent. See Mangus, Chris.

EDIT: As posted by AirplaneBottle below, Wright as well as long-snapper Joe St. Germain have left the team. Wright's departure is unfortunate but not that surprising. With 2 more years of eligibility, I hope he lands somewhere where he can shine.

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
โ€œI served in the United States Navy"
