鈥淒id you know that one in three Ravens cannot swim,鈥� Hamilton says.
鈥淐ome to Ravens training camp in this beautiful aquatics center and teach us how to swim,鈥� Humphrey adds.
Phelps seemed amenable to the idea, replying: 鈥淚 got yall!!! Let’s do it!!鈥�
Kolar said after practice Wednesday that he didn’t realize Humphrey was going to post the video.
鈥淚 should have known. It鈥檚 so on brand,鈥� Kolar said. “I thought it was going to be like a story or maybe sent to him, but I should have known better. I should have known better.鈥�
