Baltimore Ravens’ star Marlon Humphrey wishes it was a dream, but he had to accept the reality that his team is officially out of the Super Bowl contention. But more than that, he came to the hard realization that the current Baltimore team is done! 

Despite the best efforts to have a comeback late in the game, the Ravens fell short against the Buffalo Bills by two points, enduring a playoff elimination. Following the game, cornerback Humphrey decided to address the media rather unfiltered, when asked about the team.

Man, honestly, this sounds kind of, just not really a great answer, but there’s only a select few people that know they’re gonna be here next year. There really ain’t a true message, like this team is done. So obviously, there’s a message to go. But you know, the way I look at it, some guys will be here, some guys won’t. Who knows what?

The All-Pro cornerback spoke in reference to the several players whose contract is set to expire this year around March. Whereas some players might become free agents to adjust the salary cap for next season. Though he did not say that the Ravens are forever ‘done’ with their attempts to reach the Super Bowl and secure the Vince Lombardi Trophy, he highlighted the reality that the current roster would never be able to make that dream come true.

After waking up this morning after enduring the heartbreaking loss, all he could wish for was that it had all been a dream and the Ravens hadn’t lost. However, he ultimately had to accept that the “season is over,” sharing his thoughts on X. 

Marlon Humphrey’s future in Baltimore in question as he acknowledges contract limitations

While talking about the contracts and the uncertainty of the key players’ future with the Ravens, the four-time Pro Bowler also addressed his situation. Given that the tenure for the guaranteed money under this contract ends this season, even though he remains under contract with the franchise through the 2026 season.

I know I got no more years guaranteed on this contract. So whatever message you have, you could be on the same team you could be on another team. Some guys will stay. Some guys will leave. I fall into that same bucket.

Though Humphrey will not enter the free agency in 2025, there remains a possibility that Baltimore may decide to move on from him. Perhaps, an attempt at the transformation of the roster could benefit the team in their pursuit of success but whether the star cornerback will be around to witness it remains to be seen.
