Head coach Jon Harbaugh told reporters Monday that Wiggins (foot) is considered day-to-day, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
The second-year pro from Clemson exited the Week 13 loss to the Bengals due to a foot injury, but it now appears he avoided a serious issue. Wiggins is an integral part of Baltimore's secondary, recording 47 total tackles and nine passes defensed, including three interceptions, across 12 appearances this season. His practice participation throughout the week will likely offer the best indication of whether he can play in Sunday's divisional matchup against the Steelers.

Wiggins has been very active in recent weeks, with Sunday's performance marking his lowest tackle total since Week 6. He's been on the field for at least 98 percent of defensive snaps for five straight games and should be in for a good Week 13 showing against a pass-heavy Bengals' offense.

Wiggins was only able to manage a limited practice Monday due to a groin issue but he now seems to be back to 100 percent ahead of Thursday's game. Baltimore should lean on him heavily to try to slow down the likes of Jaylen Waddle and Malik Washington in Week 9 at Miami.

Ravens' Nate Wiggins: Limited in Thursday's session
Rotowire
Wiggins (elbow) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Wiggins appeared to suffer a severe elbow injury during the Ravens' Week 4 loss to the Chiefs after he was carted off the field. He was unable to practice Wednesday, but his ability to practice in at least a limited capacity Thursday is a sign that the injury is not as serious as once feared. Friday's practice report will provide insight on Wiggins' chances of suiting up for Sunday's home bout against the Texans. Jaire Alexander, T.J. Tampa and Keyon Martin could play a key role in the Ravens' secondary for Sunday's game if one or more of Wiggins, Chidobe Awuzie (hamstring) and Marlon Humphrey (calf) were to be sidelined.

Rotowire
Wiggins (neck/concussion) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

Ravens' Nate Wiggins: Could practice this week
Rotowire
Head coach John Harbaugh told reporters Monday that he's hopeful Wiggins (neck) can return to practice this week, Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
Wiggins missed the Ravens' Week 2 loss after sustaining a neck injury in a car accident earlier that week, but it now appears he could be nearing a return to the field. However, if the 2024 first-round pick needs more recovery time, expect Eddie Jackson so see increased snaps with Baltimore's first-team defense, as he did last week.

Ravens' Nate Wiggins: Won't play Week 2
Rotowire
Wiggins (neck) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Raiders.
Wiggins was unable to practice both Thursday and Friday after sustaining a neck injury in a car accident earlier in the week, so it's no surprise that the 2024 first-round pick won't be suiting up for Baltimore's home opener. Expect Jalyn Armour-Davis and rookie T.J. Tampa to see increased work in the Ravens' secondary while Wiggins remains sidelined.

Ravens' Nate Wiggins: Pops up on injury report
Rotowire
Wiggins (neck) did not practice Thursday, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Wiggins practiced in full Wednesday, so it appears the rookie corner is dealing with a new injury. The late addition to the injury report is typically bad news when it comes to suiting up for the next game, but he'll have the opportunity to get back on the field Friday in preparation for Sunday's matchup with the Raiders.

Wiggins (shoulder) returned to practice Thursday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Wiggins missed a little less than a week of practice time. The first-round rookie's 2024 role is unclear, as Baltimore's cornerback depth chart has yet to really shake out behind veteran Marlon Humphrey. Brandon Stephens and Arthur Maulet are also in the mix for starting reps.

Ravens' Nate Wiggins: Considered day-to-day
Rotowire
Wiggins is considered day-to-day after suffering a shoulder injury during Friday's preseason game against the Eagles, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
The 2024 first-round pick is expected to be ready for Week 1, per Rapoport. Wiggins' role for the Ravens remains unclear, though he possesses speed (4.28-second 40), coverage skills and a track record as the top cover corner for an elite Clemson defense in 2023. Wiggins' size (6-foot-1, 173 pounds), however, was a slight concern coming out of college.

Ravens' Nate Wiggins: Baltimore scoops up at 30th overall
Rotowire
The Ravens selected Wiggins in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 30th overall.
Wiggins is awfully skinny at 6-foot-1, 173 pounds, and with such a light frame comes reasonable concerns about run defense. He won't turn 21 until Aug. 28, however, and his frame clearly has room to add some weight if necessary. Wiggins can add mass to his frame with time, but the other cornerbacks in this class can't acquire what Wiggins has innately: elite speed (4.28-second 40) and proven coverage ability. He was the top defender on a smothering Clemson pass defense in 2023, and the Ravens have to be one of the best teams in the league for developing defensive talents. Perhaps he's a slight project, but Wiggins should fully arrive for Baltimore at some point in the near future.
