Wilson: Ngata dealing with sprained ankle

Baltimore Ravens defensive tackle Haloti Ngata sprained his right ankle against the Denver Broncos, but isn’t being ruled out for next week’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals.

He’s scheduled to undergo a magnetic resonance imaging exam today. X-rays taken Sunday were negative.

Ngata left the game in the third quarter and had his ankle re-taped twice. It never felt comfortable, though, and he didn’t return.

Meanwhile, backup safety Haruki Nakamura strained a stomach muscle.

Inside linebacker Tavares Gooden started despite a slight concussion, registering two tackles.

“It felt great to be out there flying around,” Gooden said. “I felt fine. I knew I was going to play.”
