Report: Ravens S Kyle Hamilton (MCL) week-to-week

Posted on | by Field Level Media

Baltimore Ravens safety Kyle Hamilton is considered week-to-week with an MCL sprain, ESPN reported Monday.

An MRI confirmed the knee injury sustained during Sunday’s 37-31 overtime win against the Los Angeles Rams.

Hamilton, 22, had seven tackles against the Rams. He had the non-contact injury on the final play of the first quarter but returned later in the half. His last play came in the third quarter before he was ruled out for the remainder of the game.

A first-round pick (14th overall) in 2022, Hamilton has started all 13 games for the Ravens (10-3) and has 69 tackles, nine passes defensed, three sacks and two interceptions. He had an 18-yard pick-six against the Cleveland Browns in Week 10.

If Hamilton can’t play on Sunday at Jacksonville (8-5), veteran Daryl Worley is in position to get the start at strong safety.

Posted on | by Field Level Media

Baltimore Ravens safety Kyle Hamilton was ejected from Sunday’s game in London following a helmet-to-helmet hit on Tennessee Titans wide receiver Chris Moore.

Also, Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill sustained an apparent ankle injury during the third quarter. He was able to finish Tennessee’s drive, however second-year quarterback Malik Willis replaced him to start the fourth quarter.

Hamilton hit Moore during the pass attempt with 8:37 remaining in the third quarter, resulting in flags being thrown following the incompletion.

Moore, who spent his first five seasons with the Ravens, struggled to get to his feet and needed to be assisted off the field.

Hamilton, 22, entered Sunday’s contest with 24 tackles, three sacks and one interception in five games (all starts) this season.

He has 86 tackles, five sacks and one pick in 21 career games (nine starts) since being selected 14th overall in the 2022 NFL Draft out of Notre Dame.

Ravens agree to deal with first-round pick DB Kyle Hamilton

Posted on | by Field Level Media

The Baltimore Ravens signed first-round pick Kyle Hamilton to his rookie contract on Tuesday.

Hamilton, a defensive back from Notre Dame, agreed to a four-year contract and will receive a fully-guaranteed $16.3 million, plus a signing bonus just more than $9 million, according to multiple reports. The deal also includes an option for a fifth year.

The Baltimore Sun reported that it is believed to be one of the largest rookie deals in franchise history.

A two-time All-American at Notre Dame, the 6-foot-4 Hamilton racked up 138 tackles, eight interceptions and 16 pass breakups for the Irish across 31 games in three seasons. He has also impressed the Ravens in offseason workouts.

“He’s doing the things that we’re expecting him to do,” Ravens defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald told the Sun. “… He’s right on schedule, but we don’t tell him that — try to provide some sense of urgency for him. But he’ll get there. Really pleased with Kyle.”

The Hamilton deal comes five days after Baltimore signed its other first-round selection, center Tyler Linderbaum, who was the 25th overall pick.

The Ravens have now signed six of their 2022 draft picks. Five selections remained unsigned, including second-round pick David Ojabo, an outside linebacker from Michigan.

Across the NFL, quarterback Kenny Pickett remains the highest unsigned draft pick from this class. Baltimore’s divisional rival, the Pittsburgh Steelers, selected him out of Pitt with the 20th overall pick.
