Ravens get awful update on Marlon Humphrey shoulder injury

The Baltimore Ravens defense received some bad news following their loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.

The Baltimore Ravens were looking to rebound following an ugly win over Cleveland Browns last week. Baltimore nearly got a win over the rival Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, but going for a two-point conversion instead of the game-tying extra point burned them, resulting in a 20-19 loss. Things got much worse for the Ravens following the game.

According to NFL Network national insider Ian Rapoport, cornerback Marlon Humphrey is expected to miss the remainder of the season due to a shoulder injury suffered in the Steelers game.

Ravens: Marlon Humphrey expected to miss rest of season with shoulder injury

After the game, head coach John Harbaugh announced that Humphrey suffered an undisclosed injury during the game. Harbaugh said the defensive back will undergo an MRI to determine the severity, but said that it “could be a while” until he returns.

In fact, Harbaugh said that the reason that they went for the two-point conversion instead of the extra point was because they were “pretty much out of corners” at the end of the game.

Baltimore’s secondary was already shorthanded to start the season after Marcus Peters tore his ACL just before Week 1. With Humphrey out now, the Ravens could be in trouble down the stretch.

Entering Sunday’s game, Humphrey recorded 55 combined tackles, 13 passes defensed, one interception and one forced fumble. Against the Steelers, Humphrey recorded three tackles.

The Ravens and the fanbase will wait for confirmation from the MRI results, but by the sounds of it, Humphrey is in danger of missing the rest of the season.
