After a week of pundits and experts questioning Joe Burrow’s demise, the former LSU star put the NFL back on notice with a dominant, five-touchdown performance against the Baltimore Ravens at Paycor Stadium.

Still, it wasn’t enough, as Lamar Jackson and company rallied from a late fourth-quarter deficit to force overtime with a 56-yard field goal from Justin Tucker. In overtime, the Bengals recovered a Lamar Jackosn fumble but were unable to win it after Evan McPherson missed a 56-yard field goal of his win.

Baltimore used a big Derrick Henry run to get into field goal position, and Justin Tucker’s 24 field goals gave the Ravens their third straight win.

At one point in the fourth quarter, Burrow was 27-for-34 for 353 yards and five touchdown passes, while former college teammate Ja’Marr Chase had nine catches for 174 yards and two scores against a Ravens secondary full of first-round picks and high-paid defenders.

Burrow finished 30-39 passing for 392 yards, five touchdowns, and one costly interception. His MVP counterpart, Lamar Jackson, was 26-42 passing for 348 yards and four touchdowns. Jackson also had 12 carries for 56 yards on the day.

After a slow start, Derrick Henry finished things with a bang, rushing for 91 yards on 15 carries, with one rushing touchdown.

Nate Wiggins Named Week 5 NFLPA Community MVP after incredible gesture

Baltimore Ravens cornerback Nate Wiggins was named the Week 5 NFLPA Community MVP, becoming just the third rookie to earn the award

Nate Wiggins has hit the ground running on and off the field.

The team announced that the Baltimore Ravens rookie cornerback has been named the Week 5 NFLPA Community MVP.

Wiggins partnered with the American Cancer Society and the Susan G. Komen Foundation to celebrate the NFL’s Crucial Catch initiative by providing a spa day at M&T Bank Stadium.

“There’s just a lot of people I know that have battled cancer in the past,” Wiggins said. “I just wanted to help the community and the ladies with breast cancer.”

“Thank God for these wonderful people who are taking time out of their busy schedule to come and make us feel really good,” cancer survivor Dozetta Lewis said. “I want to thank them very, very much.”

The event in the Ravens’ locker room also included makeovers, massages, a make-your-own-flower bouquet, food, and the chance to hang out with the players.

Through Wiggins’ Wiggs Worldwide Foundation, each woman received a custom-fitted wig. The event was part of Wiggins’ “Wiggs For Warriors” campaign, which aims to donate 200 wigs to those impacted by breast cancer in his hometowns of Atlanta and Baltimore.

In winning the Community MVP, the NFLPA will make a $10,000 donation to Wiggins’ foundation or charity of choice.

Wiggins is the fourth Raven to earn the award, following Torrey Smith (2014), Justin Forsett (2016), and Brandon Williams (2016).

Rookie DB Nate Wiggins is exactly what the Ravens needed

Baltimore Ravens DB Nate Wiggins produced a game changing play to help his team outlast the Dallas Cowboys in week 3.

Baltimore Ravens defensive back Nate Wiggins forced a timely fumble on Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb in the team’s week three win.



Wiggins, who missed week two, can and will help teammate Marlon Humphrey get rest on defensive possessions. Defensive coordinator Zach Orr should be mindful of Humphrey’s attrition and continue to delegate his reps covering the top opposing wide receiver with Wiggins.

The Dallas Cowboys scored 19 fourth-quarter points before running out of time in regulation. Ranking At No. 32 in the NFL in opponent’s passing yards, the Ravens’ secondary still allowed a laughable 379 pass yards in week 3.

Nevertheless, the Ravens will take this three-point victory and strategize on ways to improve the pass defense as the season continues. Lastly, having Wiggins back in the lineup didn’t just help; it rendered the turnover very well, saving the game.

The Ravens need a win badly on Sunday against the Cowboys and received some good news on the injury front.

Baltimore had five players not practice on Wednesday, which was reversed on Thursday, as all five took the practice field in some capacity.

Wiggins missed the Week 2 loss to the Raiders with a neck injury and was wearing a non-contact red jersey at the onset of practice. Ronnie Stanley suffered an ankle injury last Sunday but only missed one day before returning.

Baltimore Ravens rookie Nate Wiggins to miss Week 2 after car accident

Former Clemson cornerback Nate Wiggins will not play Sunday when the Baltimore Ravens host the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 2.

The Baltimore Ravens will be without their first-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft this Sunday after former Clemson cornerback Nate Wiggins was involved in a car crash earlier this week.

“They were kind of working through it,” Ravens coach John Harbaugh said Friday of Wiggins’ injury. “Looks like he’s not going to be able to make it to the game. He’s healthy. He’s fine. He’s just not going to be able to play.”

The Ravens face the Las Vegas Raiders Sunday at 1 p.m. ET at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore.

Wiggins was the No. 30 overall pick by Baltimore in this year’s draft after spending three years at Clemson. He played in 34 games (18 starts) for the Tigers between 2021-23 and had three interceptions, 24 passes defended and two forced fumbles.

In the Ravens’ 27-20 Week 1 loss at Kansas City, Wiggins logged 17 snaps. He made two tackles (one solo).
