Ravens First-Rounder Wiggins Carted Off at Training Camp
Under Armour, Inc. may face indirect scrutiny regarding player performance at its flagship venue after Baltimore Ravens defensive back Nate Wiggins sustained an injury during practice on Aug. 11. The incident occurred at the Under Armour Performance Center in Owings Mills, Maryland, where Wiggins was carted off the field.
Wiggins appeared to injure his left leg while covering receiver Ja’Kobi Lane in the end zone. Following the session, head coach Jesse Minter indicated that the team would evaluate the severity of the issue, though no immediate diagnosis was provided.
The former Clemson standout was selected 30th overall in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft. His development is crucial for a Ravens defense looking to improve upon recent seasons. This recent setback adds to a concerning injury history for the young cornerback; he previously suffered a foot injury in November 2025 during a Week 13 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.
The Ravens and Bengals are scheduled to face each other twice this upcoming season, with matchups set for Oct. 25 in Baltimore and Dec. 31 in Cincinnati. As the team awaits medical updates, the focus will shift to how quickly the 2024 first-round pick can recover ahead of the regular season.
What to watch
- Official medical reports from the Baltimore Ravens regarding the nature and extent of Wiggins’ leg injury.
- Under Armour’s next quarterly earnings report, which may include commentary on its brand association with the Ravens and the usage of its training center.
- Wiggins’ availability status for the Ravens’ Week 1 matchup and subsequent divisional games against the Bengals.
