Back from injury
Wiggins appears fully recovered from a knee injury heading into his second training camp with Arizona, Aaron Decker of SI.com reports.
Impact
Wiggins played three games in 2021 after being called up from the Cardinals' practice squad in October, appearing solely on special teams during this stint. The safety was then placed on injured reserve with a knee injury in December and was never activated from this list before the end of his rookie season. Wiggins should vie with Charles Washington and Deionte Thompson for a backup safety role during training camp.

Designated to return
Wiggins (knee) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday.
Impact
Wiggins landed on injured reserve in early December but will now be able to return to practice. It's not yet clear when he'll be activated from IR, but he's unlikely to play a significant defensive role if he's activated at some point.

Placed on injured reserve
Wiggins (knee) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Impact
Wiggins' move to IR comes off three consecutive absences plus a bye week. Selected in the seventh round of the 2021 Draft, Wiggins has only appeared in three games this season, totaling 35 special-teams snaps.

Set for fourth consecutive absence
Wiggins (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Impact
Wiggins practiced in limited fashion Wednesday prior to failing to take the field on either Thursday or Friday. As a result, he's in line to miss his fourth consecutive game, which is particularly worrisome given that the team is coming off its bye.

Sidelined again
Wiggins (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against Seattle, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Impact
Wiggins is set to miss his third consecutive game with a knee injury. He logged two limited practices to close the week, so he should be line to return after the Cardinals' bye in Week 12. Wiggins played exclusively on special teams, so his ongoing absence will not affect Arizona's defense.

Questionable to face Seattle
Wiggins (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, according to Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site.
Impact
Wiggins didn't practice Wednesday, but he did appear in both Thursday and Friday sessions, so he might have a chance of being available. He hasn't played since Week 8, though, when he logged seven plays on special teams. The fact that he's yet to play a single defensive snap this season suggests his potential absence won't have an impact in fantasy.

Unavailable once again
Wiggins (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Carolina, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Impact
Wiggins will be sidelined for a second consecutive matchup after he was unable to return to practice this week. He's played exclusively on special teams this year.

Out Week 9
Wiggins (knee) will not play in Sunday's game against the 49ers, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Impact
Wiggins injured his knee in the Cardinals' Week 8 loss to the Packers. Although he had a few extra days to recover with the contest being held on a Thursday, he was unable to practice all week. As a result, his absence in Week 9 is unsurprising.

Signed to active roster
The Cardinals signed Wiggins to the active roster from the practice squad Wednesday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official website reports.
Impact
Wiggins was drafted by the Cardinals in the seventh-round, but he has spent the entire season on the practice squad. He will likely see a significant role on special teams with Ezekiel Turner on injured reserve.
