Timothy John Wrightman (born March 27, 1960) is an American former professional

1982 NFL Draft. But a contract dispute with the Bears led him to sign with the Chicago Blitz of the United States Football League (USFL),[1][2] thus making him the first NFL draft pick who signed with the now defunct USFL. He won a Super Bowl ring with the Bears in 1985, and was re-signed to a two-year deal in 1986.[3][4]
