Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey is raring to return to the field after an abrupt end to his 2021 season.
The former Alabama standout was doing well through 12 games with 44 solo tackles, 13 passes defended, and one interception.
Unfortunately, he suffered a season-ending torn pectoral muscle in Week 13 versus the Pittsburgh Steelers
He was the latest casualty in the Ravens’ long list of injured players.
The absences of their key players, including quarterback Lamar Jackson, had an adverse effect on their playoff chances.
From an 8-3 record, the Ravens lost six straight to bow out of postseason contention.
Therefore, the Ravens would like to bounce back by returning to their rightful place.
For that to happen, Humphrey should channel his favorite player on every snap.
