The Baltimore Ravens drafted safety Kyle Hamilton with the 14th overall pick in the 2022 NFL draft. He grew leaps and bounds during his rookie season, and has established himself as one of the best safeties in the league in his sophomore campaign.
Hamilton is asked to do a little bit of everything in Mike Macdonald’s Baltimore defense, something which he embraces. While he did admit it’s a bit tiring at times, he said he appreciates his coaches putting so much trust in him to execute at a high level in different situations.
“Yes. It’s a little tiring at times – mentally and physically. I said this earlier; I appreciate the coaches for putting that trust in my hands and allowing me to do separate things and coaching me to the level [to] where I can do them both well. I feel like that just goes to attribute to our staff for how good they’ve been the whole season and how, top to bottom, offense, defense – and defensively, D-line, the backers, DBs [defensive backs] – everybody is just on one accord. It’s been kind of like [a] perfect harmony.”
