Trump keeps swaying the people ... athletes included.
Marlon Humphrey, a cornerback for the Ravens, was one of four players in attendance to see President Donald Trump during a Tuesday at Sparrows Point near Baltimore.
Humphrey walked away so impressed that it inspired the four-time Pro Bowler to vote in the next election. And get this: it'll be his first time at the polls. He's never voted in his life. (RELATED: Four Ravens Players Join President Donald Trump At Event In Baltimore County)
Amid the Ravens preparing for a "Sunday Night Football" contest against the Atlanta Falcons, reporters wanted to know about Humphrey's experience with Trump, and that's when he let the cat out of the bag.
"I don't think I've ever voted. I did try to vote this last time, but my absentee ballot didn't come in," said Humphrey. "So, I don't really have any political beliefs. [But] I do plan on voting the next time around."

WATCH:
Trump's magnetic pull across sports and pop culture is undeniable.
I still remember, and it wasn't even that long ago, when the narrative was that professional athletes shouldn't have anything to do with the president — that taking a photo with Trump, let alone attending one of his events, was treated like a PR death sentence.
But that nonsense has completely expired. Players aren't tiptoeing around Trump anymore. They're openly showing up for events and shaking hands with the man.
And now they're getting inspired to vote because of him? ... That's my Uncle Trump!
