'I Got Mad!' Baltimore Ravens CB Marlon Humphrey Can't Believe LB Patrick Queen Signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers

The Baltimore Ravens have lost some big pieces on defense this season, but one stands out as most jarring.

The Baltimore Ravens have lost some big pieces on defense this season. Geno Stone joined the rival Cincinnati Bengals, Ronald Darby signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars and Jadeveon Clowney went home to Carolina to play for the Panthers.

But maybe the most jarring departure of all was the news that former Ravens linebacker Patrick Queen signed a deal with the most hated Baltimore rival of all, the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Current Ravens corner Marlon Humphrey couldn't believe it either, as he stated on his podcast, Humphrey's Punch Line.

“I’ll be honest with you, when I saw Patrick Queen to the Steelers, I got mad emotional," Humphrey said. “Literally, when I saw that, I started thinking to myself, ‘How can I line up in front of PQ?...So I really went off the true emotional deep end, and I was like, ‘It doesn’t matter, I'm going to hit him.’ Bro, the Steelers? I can’t believe this.

“I was like, ‘Bro, tell me this was the only option...‘You gotta help me get through this," Humphrey added."He was like, ‘Bro, it was the best situation,’ and then he told me the other team and I was like, ‘I hear you.'”

Queen posted career highs in combined tackles with 133 and tackles for loss with 84. He added nine tackles for loss and six quarterback hits to go along with one interception, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery.

Humphrey and the rest of the current Ravens will now have to face Queen wearing Steelers colors twice a season for the next few years.
