Ravens CB Marlon Humphrey urges patience after Baltimore’s slow start to free agency

The Baltimore Ravens haven’t been very active over the course of 2023 free agency so far, re-signing a few of their contributors while also losing a few a well. There is still plenty of time to make moves, but the ongoing situation with quarterback Lamar Jackson makes things difficult for the organization to fully gauge their standing.

While Ravens fans may be discontent with the team’s failure to make any splash moves in the first two days of free agency, cornerback Marlon Humphrey took to Twitter to voice his opinion on the matter on Wednesday. He preached patience, saying that Baltimore is a comeback team.

“The Ravens are a comeback team just be patient!” Humphrey wrote.

Nobody knows the Ravens’ underdog culture better than Humphrey, who has grown into a starring role in Baltimore’s secondary after joining the team in 2017 as a first-round draft pick. The circumstances surrounding their inactivity shouldn’t go without mention either, as the Ravens are understandably preoccupied with potentially securing Jackson’s services on a long-term deal before adding talent at other positions.

Fans shouldn’t rule out that the Ravens could make up for lost time as the free agency period wears on. Many of the most recognizable names are off the board, but as teams adjust their rosters to compensate for new arrivals, Baltimore may have their eyes on players who haven’t yet become available.
