I feel like we were being the bigger guys." We'll be the bigger guy, so we just walked off the field. It wasn't no reason for us to shake hands and stuff like that. "That was just disrespectful, because we treat all of our opponents with respect. "I feel it was just disrespect to see what went on before the game the last time we played those guys, and they were standing on our logo and seeing them get into it with our coach," Jackson said. Six plays later, Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson knelt one final time and ran off the field without shaking hands with the Titans, waving at his teammates to do the same. The Ravens were penalized 15 yards for taunting, but it had no impact on the game. Pro Bowl cornerback Marlon Humphrey sat on the logo, and middle linebacker Patrick Queen waved at the Tennessee sideline. He leapt on the logo, dropped the ball there and shouted at the Titans' sideline with his arms extended. Peters ended the Titans' hope for a comeback with two minutes remaining, when he picked off Ryan Tannehill at the Ravens' 40-yard line, returned the interception 13 yards and then bolted to the middle of the field. I don't think it's a big deal."īaltimore defensive end Calais Campbell, who flexed on the Titans' logo, told NFL Network when asked about the gathering at midfield: "Respect is earned." It was a team unity thing like we accomplished something as a team, so we're going to go out there and take a little bit of revenge. "I felt like it was a good time to go ahead and do that - so we did it. Sometimes you act out of emotion," Ravens defensive end Derek Wolfe said. This outburst came two months after the Titans' players huddled on the Ravens' logo before the teams' last matchup, which led to a confrontation between Ravens coach John Harbaugh and Titans players. In the final two minutes of the Ravens' 20-13 wild-card victory Sunday, 15 Ravens defenders followed Peters and stormed midfield, where many stomped on the logo. The Baltimore Ravens insist their celebration on the Tennessee Titans' logo after Marcus Peters' game-sealing interception wasn't planned.
