The Baltimore Ravens were dealt perhaps their most serious injury blow of what has been a downright miserable season when it was revealed that star cornerback Marlon Humphrey would miss the rest of the season.

Humphrey suffered a torn pectoral muscle late in the Ravens’ Week 13 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. The initial word from head coach John Harbaugh was that he could be out “a while,” and the initial confirmation came the next day.

Humphrey is done for the year. And just like that, the Ravens have lost yet another starter due to injury — this one perhaps their most painful of all.

The Ravens will now be forced to scramble as they look to replace one of the most irreplaceable players on their roster. With Marcus Peters already out for the season, their options are limited.

Especially given all the other injuries the team has been forced to endure in the secondary. As such, they could look to make an external addition.

Now, the Ravens cap situation is very tight at the moment — due in no small part to all of the dead cap sitting on the injured reserve. Any suggestion in this article comes with the caveat that the team could afford it.

With some of these players, that likely won’t be an issue. But it could be an obstacle to overcome for others. Either way, the five players on this list will help provide further depth to a depleted cornerback unit.

Let’s take a look at five players the Ravens could sign to help replace Marlon Humphrey.
