Ravens players seek swimming lessons from Baltimore native Michael Phelps
Cornerback Marlon Humphrey posted a video on social media asking 23-time Olympic swimming champion Michael Phelps — a Baltimore native — for swimming lessons. The video includes Humphrey, tackle Ronnie Stanley, safety Kyle Hamilton and tight end Charlie Kolar standing in the pool.
'Did you know that one in three Ravens cannot swim,' Hamilton says.
'Come to Ravens training camp in this beautiful aquatics center and teach us how to swim,' Humphrey adds.
Phelps seemed amenable to the idea, replying: 'I got yall!!! Let's do it!!'
Kolar said after practice Wednesday that he didn't realize Humphrey was going to post the video.
'I should have known. It's so on brand,' 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.'

Sprinter Sha'Carri Richardson arrested for incident at Washington airport involving boyfriend
Reigning world champion 100-meter sprinter Sha'Carri Richardson was arrested last weekend for allegedly assaulting her boyfriend at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Richardson was charged Sunday with fourth degree domestic violence, according to the police report obtained by The Associated Press. On Thursday, she ran in the opening round the women's 100 meters at U.S. track and field championships in Eugene, Oregon. She has an automatic bye to the world championships in September in Tokyo as the defending champion. 'USATF is aware of the reports and is not commenting on this matter,' USA Track and Field said in a statement. Richardson's agent did not immediately reply to an email request for comment. The police report said an officer at the airport was notified by a Transportation Security Administration supervisor of a disturbance between the 25-year-old Richardson and her boyfriend, sprinter Christian Coleman. The officer reviewed camera footage and observed Richardson reach out with her left arm and grab Coleman's backpack and yank it away. Richardson then appeared to get in Coleman's way with Coleman trying to step around her. Coleman was shoved into a wall. The report later said that Richardson appeared to throw an item at Coleman, which the TSA indicated may have been headphones. In the police report, the officer said: 'I was told Coleman did not want to participate any further in the investigation and declined to be a victim.' Richardson won the 100 at the 2023 world championships in Budapest and finished with the silver at the Paris Games last summer. She had a positive positive marijuana test at the 2021 U.S. Olympic trials and didn't compete at the Tokyo Olympics. ___ AP Summer Olympics:
