Baltimore Ravens Star That Hilariously Dissed Noah Lyles Gets Cancelled During Recent Interview: ”Where’d Your Speed Go”

Noah Lyles has come a long way in his professional track and field career. He has achieved some significant accolades in recent times and has reestablished his dominance in the athletic world. Whether it was standing atop the podium at the recently concluded World Championships in Budapest or winning the 200m heat at the Zurich Diamond League, he has been an unstoppable force.

Lyles is also a trailblazer in bringing back the dominance of the United States in the track and field realm. While he stands on the pinnacle of glory, one of his fellow athletes has revealed some hilarious insider secrets about Noah Lyles.

This athlete was once a prominent part of the American track and field division and is now a well-known American football cornerback. The player is none other than Baltimore Ravens prodigy Marlon Humphrey. However, many are oblivious to the Humphrey’s association with athletics. Hence, during a podcast, this American NFL star shared some insights about how he was chosen over Noah Lyles.

When Marlon Humphrey was chosen over Noah Lyles

On his podcast “Punch Line with Marlon Humphrey”, the NFL cornerback revealed that he was participating in the 2013 Donetsk World Youth Championships. He stated that he got to the rounds and then got to the finals and placed second to win the silver.

He further stated there was a relay meet at the end of that day, and the officials came to him and said, “We need you; we really don’t want Noah to run. Humphrey further laughed at being chosen to run instead of Noah Lyles.

He also revealed that he was informed that the team had a better chance of winning if he ran the race.

Following this, the interviewer humorously asked Humphrey, “Where’d Your Speed Go?” as he is not running anymore and is a professional NFL athlete now. This podcast also caught the attention of Noah Lyles, and he responded to this conversation on his Instagram story and wrote, “Yah I remember that World youth team. I was 16 I think and didn’t make it out the simi finals of the 200.” 

The caption was also accompanied by laughing emojis. Well, the story might be funny, but it also shows the dedication and hard work that Noah Lyles put in to make it to the pinnacle of his career.
