Las Vegas Raiders rookie receiver Henry Ruggs III did not sustain any muscular damage when he injured his thigh in a moving accident in May, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.

Ruggs had his leg pinned between a trailer and a car while helping a friend move. He required stitches following the accident, but he's expected to be ready for training camp, Schefter reports.

Selected 12th overall by the Raiders in April's draft, Ruggs was the first wideout off the board after starring at Alabama for three years. He recorded the fastest time in the 40-yard dash at the NFL Scouting Combine in February, clocking in at 4.27 seconds.
