ExtremeRavens Posted October 8 Posted October 8 New details have emerged from the rollover car crash that Ravens rookie cornerback Nate Wiggins was in last month. According to an accident report from the Maryland Transportation Authority that was obtained by The Baltimore Sun, the incident took place on Interstate 95 northbound in Baltimore at 5:50 p.m. on Sept. 11 near Exit 52. Practice squad cornerback and fellow rookie Ryan “Bump” Cooper Jr. was riding in the passenger seat of Wiggins’ Lamborghini Urus. Wiggins’ car clipped the right rear corner of an Acura RDX after being cut off by another vehicle, according to the report, rolled over and came to rest on the passenger side. Both Wiggins, 21, and Cooper, 23, were wearing seatbelts at the time of the crash and did not report having any injuries. The driver of the Acura, along with its three passengers, were also all wearing seat belts and did not report any injuries. Wiggins, whom the Ravens drafted 30th overall in April, was listed with a neck injury on the team’s injury report and checked for a concussion before missing Baltimore’s home opener that week, a 26-23 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. Wiggins returned to practice the following week and spoke with reporters about the crash. “It was scary,” he said. “It’s always scary to get in a car accident.” Wiggins is at least the third Ravens player to have gotten into an accident this season. Tight end Mark Andrews and linebacker Josh Ross were also involved in crashes. On Friday, the NFL Players Association named Wiggins its Week 5 community MVP for his volunteer work, which included his foundation donating wigs and setting up stylings for 35 breast cancer patients and survivors during an event at M&T Bank Stadium. The Ravens (3-2) host the 4-1 Commanders on Sunday. Have a news tip? Contact Brian Wacker at bwacker@baltsun.com, 410-332-6200 and x.com/brianwacker1. View the full article Quote
