Ravens’ Brandon Stephens impressed with speed of rookie CB Nate Wiggins

undefined

The Baltimore Ravens invest plenty of assets into their secondary every year. From trades to big-money signings to high-level draft picks and more, Baltimore brings in a lot of talent to ensure their secondary is up to the level it needs to be.

Ravens cornerback Brandon Stephens was asked about his early impressions of Baltimore’s first-round draft pick this past April, fellow cornerback Nate Wiggins. Stephens said that Wiggins’ speed has been a big part of his early thoughts, but also the way that the rookie approaches every day with an eagerness to learn.

“His speed – he’s definitely got the speed; also, the way he just approaches every day – always trying to learn, asking the right questions and just trying to learn from guys that have been here.”

Wiggins will play alongside Stephens and Marlon Humphrey at the cornerback position for Baltimore in 2024 and hopes to lock down plenty of opposing pass catchers. The Ravens’ defense played at a historic level in 2023 and will try to replicate that success once again this upcoming season.
