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

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

You are literally disgusting. Ja'Marr puts 300 and 3 TDs on your ass this year.

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

God forbid athletes show respect to another athlete who has torn his ACL multiple times

Dude, Andrade came back from THREE ACL tears.
Not so much that sportsmanship needs an excuse, but this is 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 best in the world in their sport? You don't know the “Olympic Spirit” because you've never been there and you never will be there. So shhhhh!

Relax dude, they win everything, just be a good sport about someone who always loses to them
