Overview
- Wiggins was injured during one-on-one drills when his feet tangled with rookie Ja’Kobi Lane and he was carted off the field after being unable to put weight on his left leg, reporters said Tuesday.
- Initial imaging and insider reports late Tuesday and early Wednesday found no structural or ligament damage, reducing the risk of a long-term injury.
- Coach Jesse Minter first expressed guarded optimism after the incident and later said Wiggins and Marlon Humphrey are "trending very well" with the possibility of returning to practice next week.
- Baltimore will lean on veteran and younger cornerbacks such as Marlon Humphrey, Chidobe Awuzie, T.J. Tampa, Amani Oruwariye and reserves to absorb extra snaps if Wiggins misses time, and the team is managing reps while evaluations continue.
- Wiggins is a 2024 first-round pick and a projected starter whose availability matters to a Ravens secondary that struggled against the pass in 2025, so his quick recovery would help preserve the defense’s planned coverage schemes.
