Jake Maxwell Wright (born 11 March 1986) is an English professional footballer who plays for League One club Sheffield United.
Wright started his career with Bradford City, but played only one senior game for them, before he joined Halifax Town where he had previously spent a loan spell. He spent two years at Halifax, but after they were demoted from the Conference Premier, he moved to Crawley Town in June 2008 before transferring to Brighton in July 2009. After that he spent 7 years at Oxford United where he made 278 total appearances and won two promotions with the club. He can play at left back or centre back.
Born in Keighley, West Yorkshire, Jake Wright started his football career as a youngster with Bradford City and, in April 2005, was one of four defenders to be given a one-year contract. In August 2005, he and fellow Bradford City player Danny Forrest moved to Conference National side Halifax Town on loan—Wright's an initial one-month loan deal. He made his debut on 10 September 2005, in a 4–0 Conference victory over Tamworth at The Shay. He twice extended his loan deal, staying with Halifax for three months, during which time he played 11 league games and three cup games, before he returned to Bradford. Wright made his Bradford debut as a second-half substitute against Colchester United on 4 February 2006, replacing Richard Edghill, who had broken his ankle. It would be his only senior appearance for Bradford.
