Phelps, a Baltimore native, is a longtime fan of the Ravens. During a 2004 game, the team brought him as their special guest, and again in 2012, the Olympian was honored at a home game when he lead the team's offense onto the field.

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.
