Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey is catching some serious heat for his response to a photo of Simone Biles and Jordan Chiles.
The picture showed Biles and Chiles bowing to Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade, who won her first gold medal of the 2024 Olympics. Andrade had reportedly torn her ACL three times during her career before her win, and this gold marks her sixth total Olympic medal and second gold medal.
Humphrey faced harsh criticism for sharing a photo of the moment with the caption “This is literally disgusting.”

A short while after making this post, the cornerback posted that he was “lowkey getting cooked right now. I think I’m getting cussed out in Brazilian on Instagram lol.”

It wasn’t just Brazilians on Instagram who were displeased with his comments:

You are literally disgusting. Ja’Marr is putting 300 and 3 TDs on your ass this year.

Yeah, because giving someone their flowers who has come back from THREE ACL tears to continue to be a top gymnast is disgusting.

God forbid athletes show respect to a fellow athlete who has suffered a torn ACL multiple times

Dude, Andrade returned from THREE ACL tears.
Not that good sportsmanship needs an excuse, but that’s incredible.
She deserves all the praise in the world.

Who are you? Even in your sport, people don’t know who you are, and you want to judge three of the greatest in the world in their sport? You don’t know the “Olympic Spirit” because you have never been there and never will be. So shhhhh!
