Baltimore Ravens bring back two rising stars against Cowboys


Baltimore Ravens bring back two rising stars against Cowboys

Cornerback Nate Wiggins and outside linebacker David Ojabo of the Baltimore Ravens are both active for Sunday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys. Both players were listed as questionable on the latest injury report.

Wiggins, the 30th pick in this year’s draft, missed about a week with a neck injury/concussion sustained in a car accident. The 21-year-old had a solid debut against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 1 and now returns to the field against a dangerous passing attack.

Head coach John Harbaugh indicated that Wiggins could be ready to play on Friday, pending final approval from team doctors.

“As you saw, (Nate Wiggins) was practicing at full speed — he was in everything, had the red jersey on, but he was full on moving and everything,” Harbaugh told reporters. “I thought he looked great, so it’s up to the doctors and protocol, etc. and we’ll see how that plays out.”

Ojabo was limited in Thursday’s practice due to a hamstring injury, but returned to full strength Friday. The Michigan product has only played in five games in his first two seasons, so it’s good to see that his latest injury is nothing serious.

“Like I said, I have a really good feeling about (Ojabo), I’ve always had a good feeling about what he can be and what he’s done,” outside linebacker Odafe Oweh told reporters Wednesday. “His sack in Kansas City was just the tip of the iceberg. He’s made so many more moves, and he’s getting more and more confident in his body and in his flow, and you’re going to see even crazier (and) even more big plays because he’s got that big-play trait in him, and that’s all he wants to do — that play, that strip-sack, that fumble, that kind of thing. I’m excited to see what he can do.”

Here is the full list of inactives:

Most of these players haven’t played in a game yet, but Isaac’s inclusion on the list is a bit surprising. The third-round rookie out of Penn State has been a full participant in practice all week, so it seemed like a good opportunity for him to make his regular-season debut. Unfortunately, he’ll have to wait a little longer.
