🏈 Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey said he was attempting to pitch his pick-six to teammate David Ojabo and wasn’t taunting the Pittsburgh Steelers.
“I want to make this, like, pretty clear,” Humphrey told reporters after the game. “When I was running with the football I saw [linebacker] David Ojabo, a really great teammate of mine, and I was trying to pitch him the football. So some people brought up to me that it looked like taunting, or something. But I was trying to pitch him the football and there was no taunting there at all. I just want to make that very clear.”
Humphrey was not penalized. He could be fined, however.
