INDIANAPOLIS — Clemson cornerback Nate Wiggins ran a blazing 40-yard dash but suffered a potentially serious leg injury that ended the projected first-round pick’s day on a down note.

One of the top-rated cornerbacks in the 2024 NFL Draft class, Wiggins posted an unofficial 4.29-second 40 but hobbled to the sideline moments later.

He talked to NFL Network reporter Stacey Dales before going to the locker room in Lucas Oil Stadium. Wiggins told Dales he felt a “pop” in his groin and his leg was on “fire.”

Wiggins weighed a very light 173 pounds at official measurements.
