John Harbaugh says Ravens rookie CB Nate Wiggins was involved in car accident and will miss Week 2

Baltimore Ravens cornerback Nate Wiggins is out for Week 2 due to a car accident, head coach John Harbaugh announced Friday.

Wiggins, a first-round pick by the Ravens in 2024’s NFL Draft, is currently listed on the team’s injured list with a neck injury.

“Nate was in a car accident a couple days ago,” Harbaugh said. “He’s OK. He’s healthy, he’s OK, but he’s just not going to be able to play.”

Wiggins missed practice on Thursday with the neck injury, meaning the accident likely occurred after practice on Wednesday.

Wiggins was selected 30th overall by Baltimore out of Clemson; he was All-ACC in 2023. In Week 1 against the Kansas City Chiefs, Wiggins was not in the starting lineup but made a solid debut, playing 17 defensive snaps and 11 special teams snaps.

He will miss Sunday’s home game against the Las Vegas Raiders, but Harbaugh indicated it is unlikely Wiggins will miss significant time as a result of the accident.
