Marlon Humphrey Defends Controversial Olympic Comments
News summary

Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey has generated controversy by criticizing U.S. gymnasts Simone Biles and Jordan Chiles for bowing to Brazilian gold medalist Rebeca Andrade during the 2024 Paris Olympics, labeling the gesture as 'literally disgusting.' In his podcast, Humphrey expressed his view that Americans should not bow to anyone, emphasizing that such gestures are inappropriate and should only be reserved for God. Despite the backlash and being called out on social media, he stood by his comments, stating he was unaware of the negative response until it was brought to his attention at practice. He acknowledged that while his tweet sparked a firestorm, he believes there is no such thing as bad media. Moreover, he found it humorous that Michelle Obama later praised the gymnasts' sportsmanship, indicating that the situation has not deterred him from expressing his opinions. Humphrey is now preparing for the upcoming NFL season, where the Ravens aim to disrupt the Kansas City Chiefs' winning streak.
