On April 28, 2020, the Ravens exercised the fifth year option on Humphrey's rookie contract.

In 2019, Humphrey changed his jersey number from 29 to 44 to accommodate the signing of Earl Thomas for the 2019 season. In week 1 against the Miami Dolphins, Humphrey intercepted Josh Rosen once as the Ravens won 59–10. In week 4 against the Cleveland Browns, after getting into an altercation with Odell Beckham Jr., Humphrey pinned him to the turf. Initially, it appeared that Humphrey choked Beckham Jr., but the Ravens released a close-up video after the game that showed Humphrey had two fists full of jersey and did not touch Beckham Jr.'s neck. After the game, Humphrey apologized to Beckham and said that his response to Beckham was not a brand of football he wanted to represent. In week 5 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Humphrey forced wide receiver Juju Smith-Schuster to fumble the ball and recovered the ball. Humphrey's forced fumble set up a game-winning field goal by Justin Tucker in the 26–23 win. In week 6 against the Cincinnati Bengals, Humphrey recorded an interception off Andy Dalton in the 23–17 win. In week 7 against the Seattle Seahawks, Humphrey recovered a fumble for an 18-yard touchdown on a ball lost by rookie wide receiver DK Metcalf in the 30–16 win. In week 9 against the New England Patriots, Humphrey recovered a fumble forced by teammate Patrick Onwuasor on wide receiver Julian Edelman for a 70-yard touchdown in the 37–20 win. This was Humphrey's second touchdown in two games. The 70-yard fumble recovery touchdown set the record for longest in Baltimore Ravens team history. In week 16 against the Cleveland Browns, Humphrey intercepted a pass thrown by Baker Mayfield late in the fourth quarter which sealed a 31–15 Ravens' win. At the end of the regular season, Humphrey had been named to the Pro Bowl and the AP 2019 All-Pro Team

In an interview for the Baltimore Ravens website, Humphrey explained how earning a degree is not only important to him but to his family and college coach as well. "The first time I met with coach Saban and staff, one of the things they said was, ‘We want all of our guys to play in the NFL, but we always want our guys to graduate and walk across the stage,’” says Humphrey.

The Baltimore Ravens selected Humphrey in the first round (16th overall) of the 2017 NFL Draft. Humphrey was the second cornerback drafted in 2017, after Ohio State cornerback Marshon Lattimore (11th overall).

On May 5, 2017, the Baltimore Ravens signed Humphrey to a fully guaranteed four-year, $11.84 million contract with a signing bonus of $6.75 million.

He made his professional regular season debut in the Baltimore Ravens' season-opening 20–0 victory at the Cincinnati Bengals. On October 8, 2017, Humphrey earned his first career start and recorded three combined tackles during a 30–17 win at the Oakland Raiders in Week 5. On November 19, 2017, Humphrey recorded three combined tackles, deflected two passes, and made his first career interception in the Ravens' 23–0 victory at the Green Bay Packers in Week 11. Humphrey made his first career interception off a pass attempt by quarterback Brett Hundley, which was originally intended for wide receiver Jordy Nelson, and returned it for a 15-yard gain in the fourth quarter. In Week 13, he collected a season-high seven combined tackles, broke up a pass, and made an interception during a 44–20 win against the Detroit Lions. Humphrey became a starting cornerback for the last four regular season games after Jimmy Smith was placed on injured reserve after tearing his Achilles tendon. He finished his rookie season in 2017 with 34 combined tackles (30 solo), 11 pass deflections, and two interceptions in 16 games and five starts. He received an overall grade of 70.7 from Pro Football Focus in 2017.

After his rookie season in 2017, Humphrey decided to move back in with his parents in Alabama to finish his degree at the University of Alabama. He left school after his sophomore season to pursue a professional career in football, leaving his degree unfinished.

After his impressive first season, Humphrey ended up earning first team All-American rights in his final stint with the team. He started 2016 with the team's first interception for a touchdown against USC, and started 14 games. Humphrey continued to dominate opposing receivers the rest of the season, and declared his early departure from the collegiate level for the NFL draft.

Humphrey intended to compete in football and track for the Crimson Tide. After redshirting his initial year in Tuscaloosa, he became a starter at cornerback in 2015.

The Crimson Tide's second-string cornerback had an electrifying first year at Alabama. He earned the starting job in his first game against Wisconsin and ranked second on the team in interceptions with 3 during the 2015 season. Humphrey was an essential part of an elite 2015 Alabama defense earning Freshman All-American rights. The team went on to win their 16th national championship.

A native of Hoover, Alabama, Humphrey attended Hoover High School, where he was a three-time All-State selection. During his junior and senior seasons, Hoover went a combined 30–1, winning AHSAA 6A State Championships in 2013. Humphrey was named as a USA Today High School All-American for the 2012 and 2013 seasons. Regarded as a five-star recruit by Rivals.com, Humphrey was ranked as the No. 2 cornerback prospect of the 2014 class, behind only Jabrill Peppers. Humphrey committed to attend the University of Alabama on January 29, 2014.

In high school, Humphrey also competed at a world-class level in track. He won a silver medal in the 110 metres hurdles at the 2013 World Youth Championships in Donetsk, Ukraine. He lost to Jaheel Hyde of Jamaica, who established a new championship record and came .01 seconds shy of tying the World Youth Best held by Wilhem Belocian. Humphrey was also named to the USA Today All-American Track and Field Team.

Head coach John Harbaugh named Humphrey a starting cornerback to begin the regular season after Jimmy Smith was suspended for the first four games for violating the league's personal conduct policy. He started in the Baltimore Ravens' season-opener against the Buffalo Bills and made two solo tackles and a season-high three pass deflections during a 47–3 victory. He finished the season playing in 14 games with eight starts, recording 37 combined tackles, a forced fumble, and a team-leading 15 pass deflections and two interceptions. He was given a grade of 80.0 by Pro Football Focus, which ranked 11th among all cornerbacks.
