Default Scraping noise from FR Wheel

On my way home from school today i noticed a weird noise. Doesn't happen while im stopped just idling but it seem like the faster the wheel turns the louder it gets. It sounds like something metal being dragged across the ground or something metal being scraped. Theres nothing hanging down. Definitely coming from the front right wheel. any ideas?
