A late-blooming running defender/wingman, Wehr was selected by the GIANTS with pick 59 in the 2020 AFL Draft as a mature-aged recruit after impressing in the Woodville-West Torrens' premiership-winning SANFL side. A classy left-footer, Wehr is renowned for his high work rate and his clean disposal by both hand and foot. After he was unable to break through for a senior game in his debut season, Wehr was delisted but then re-drafted as a rookie by the GIANTS in the 2021 AFL Rookie Draft. He made the most of this opportunity, playing 10 games in 2022 and earning the club’s Rising Star Award. Early in 2023, Wehr secured a spot in club’s starting 22 but a serious shoulder injury suffered in round two against the Eagles curtailed his season as he managed to return for just two more games at senior level that year. Wehr added 11 more AFL games to his tally in 2024.
