Part of that confidence stemmed from what he saw rest of the day after Wiggins went down early in the practice, which lasted over two hours.
"However it shakes out, I feel good about the secondary," Minter said.
Here are notes from Tuesday's practice:
- Veteran cornerback Marlon Humphrey had one of his best practices yet with a pass breakup against tight end Mark Andrews and an interception in the back of the end zone during a partial-speed red-zone drill.
- Fellow cornerback T.J. Tampa, who has been one of the standouts of training camp so far, had a "sack" and broke up a pass. Wide receiver Devontez Walker did slip by a Tampa "tackle" attempt on the sideline for a long gain.
- Cornerback Bilhal Kone nearly intercepted a Lamar Jackson pass intended for Walker, blanketed a receiver during one-on-one drills, and shared a sack with outside linebacker Adisa Isaac.
- Rookie cornerback Chandler Rivers notched a sack on Jackson. He also broke up an end zone fade intended for fellow rookie Elijah Sarratt at the end of practice. Sarratt initially caught the pass, but the 5-foot-10 Rivers fought through the catch point to knock it loose.
- Second-year safety Keondre Jackson also won his red-zone one-on-one rep against rookie tight end Josh Cuevas. It was an up-and-down day for Cuevas, who may have caught more passes than anyone but also had a couple of drops.
- Kicker Tyler Loop stayed hot, going 7-for-7 on his live field goal attempts from 34, 35, 39, 39, 41, 42, and 47 yards. It's the third straight day that Loop hasn't missed.
- Walker had perhaps the best day of anyone on the offensive side. He also rose up to catch a laser from Jackson on a slant in the red zone.
- Wide receiver Cornelius Johnson made the catch of the day with a diving touchdown grab.
- Defensive tackle Aeneas Peebles returned to the field after being sidelined and was almost too quick on one snap when he nearly took the hand-off from Jackson himself. Peebles also batted down a pass later in practice.
