Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey is not happy with the way Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is being treated. And Humphrey said it on Thursday. “It seems like Lamar is the only quarterback [who] “He kind of gets the smear that he gets every time something happens,” Humphrey told reporters, via ESPN’s Jamison Hensley. “I feel like you just don’t see these same items. I’m in the hot tub and it’s this, that and the third. Unfair treatment.” Humphrey did not specify any recent examples during Jackson’s absence due to an ankle injury. “I just feel like sometimes he seems to get away from him… “I don’t know if it’s a lack of agent or what, that no one can defend him,” Humphrey said. “But I do know this, if Lamar Jackson can play, if he’s healthy enough to play, he’ll play, and that’s all I can say about it.” In the draft, for example, there was no one to turn down players like former general manager Bill Polian, who argued that Jackson should move to a different position. Without an agent in place to defend him and defend him, is possibly one of the reasons why the two-time MVP was available at the end of the first round, where he was selected 22 spots behind Josh Rosen. Ultimately, Lamar Jackson is the only one who speaks on his behalf. what really speaks. [Lamar] It’s Lamar. I think if Lamar can play, it would be great. If he doesn’t, we have Snoop. [Huntley]”While there have been questions in recent years about whether Jackson decided not to play while he was less than 100 percent at a time when he lacked the financial security of a new contract (which is smart), there hasn’t been much if any criticism directed at Jackson during his latest absence. He obviously has an ankle injury and while some reports describe him as day to day, we reported on the day it happened that he is week to week. Based on his participation in practice over the last two days, this could be the week Jackson returns and Baltimore could use it; the Ravens (4-2) host the Bengals (3-2) on Sunday.
