Ravens' Kyle Hamilton: On practice field Wednesday
Rotowire
Hamilton (groin) is participating in Wednesday's practice, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Hamilton entered Week 5 as a limited participant at practice but then missed back-to-back sessions before being ruled out for Baltimore's loss to Houston. It's encouraging to now see him back on the field in at least a limited capacity. If the standout safety is able to gain clearance in time to play Sunday at home against the Rams, his presence will provide a significant boost for the Ravens' struggling defense.

Rotowire
Hamilton tallied five total tackles (three solo), including one tackle for loss, in Sunday's 41-17 win over the Browns.

Ravens' Kyle Hamilton: Agrees to blockbuster extension
Rotowire
Hamilton and the Ravens agreed to terms Wednesday on a four-year, $100.4 million contract extension, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Hamilton's extension is the largest in NFL history for a safety, but Baltimore wanted to waste no time in securing the 2022 first-round pick's long-term future with the team. Fresh off a breakout 2024 campaign in which he earned second-team All-Pro honors and tallied a career-high 107 total tackles (including 2.0 sacks) while playing all 17 regular-season games, Hamilton is positioned alongside Marlon Humphrey as one of the leaders of the Ravens' secondary. The former also had nine passes defensed in 2024, including one INT, and two forced fumbles (one recovered).

Ravens' Kyle Hamilton: Returns to practice
Rotowire
Hamilton (groin) returned to practice Tuesday, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Hamilton missed last week's preseason opener against the Colts, but his return to practice Tuesday at least gives Hamilton a chance to suit up for Saturday's exhibition against Dallas. Hamilton logged a career-high 107 tackles (77 solo) in 2024 as a 17-game starter during the regular season. He was named a second-team All-Pro.

Ravens' Kyle Hamilton: Absent from practice
Rotowire
Hamilton (groin) will not participate in Saturday's training camp practice, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Hamilton did not play in Thursday's preseason opener against the Colts due to a groin injury. The Ravens will manage Hamilton's injury conservatively, and he's unlikely to play in Baltimore's next preseason game against Dallas on Saturday, Aug. 16 if he's unable to practice in the coming week. Sanoussi Kane drew the start at strong safety Thursday and will continue to get reps with the first-team defense for as long as Hamilton is sidelined.

Ravens' Kyle Hamilton: Dealing with groin injury
Rotowire
Hamilton (groin) did not participate during Tuesday's training camp practice, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Hamilton apparently picked up a groin issue during Monday's session, and now he's absent from drills entirely. His availability for Thursday's preseason game at Baltimore is in jeopardy, though the reigning Pro Bowler doesn't figure to play much in that contest even if he's at 100 percent. In his absence, 2024 seventh-rounder Sanoussi Kane could see some first-team reps at safety.

Ravens' Kyle Hamilton: Reaches tackling century mark
Rotowire
Hamilton played in all 17 regular-season games in 2024 and finished with 107 tackles (77 solo), including 2.0 sacks, nine pass defenses (one interception), two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery.
Hamilton's tackling output in 2024 was a career high and second most on the Ravens behind Roquan Smith (154). Hamilton registered double-digit tackles in five regular-season games and played every single snap in nine contests. He didn't miss a snap during the Ravens' postseason run, during which he accumulated 12 tackles (six solo) across two games. Hamilton's efforts in 2024 earned him a Pro Bowl nod for a second straight year and a spot on the second-team All-Pro roster, and the Ravens will likely exercise the safety's fifth-year option while working on a contract extension during the offseason, Clifton Brown of the team's official site posits.

Ravens' Kyle Hamilton: Past knee injury
Rotowire
Hamilton (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
Hamilton was limited in Tuesday's practice due to a knee injury he likely picked up during the Ravens' Week 18 win over the Browns. His full participation in Wednesday's practice indicates that Hamilton is past the issue and should play in Saturday's wild-card round clash against the Steelers. The third-year safety out of Notre Dame finished the 2024 regular season with a career-high 107 tackles (77 solo), including 2.0 sacks, nine pass defenses (including one interception), two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery across 17 games.

Hamilton logged three tackles during the Ravens' 35-10 win over the Browns in Week 18, but it appears he may have picked up a knee injury in the process. Hamilton will have two more chances this week to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury designation heading into Saturday's wild-card round game against the Steelers.

Hamilton sprained his right ankle during the Ravens' Week 10 win against the Bengals this past Thursday. He underwent treatments over the weekend and didn't practice Wednesday, but his ability to practice Thursday -- albeit in a limited capacity -- indicates the third-year safety is progressing through his recovery.

Coach John Harbaugh relayed after the game that the injury isn't considered serious, but it's unclear how long Hamilton will be sidelined.

Ravens' Kyle Hamilton: Collects 10 tackles in loss
Rotowire
Hamilton recorded 10 tackles (nine solo), including 1.0 sacks, a forced fumble and two passes defensed during Sunday's 29-24 loss at Cleveland.
The flashiest of Hamilton's tackles Sunday came near the end of the first half, when he flew off the edge on a third-down blitz and crashed into Jameis Winston's blind side, jarring the ball loose and setting up a Ravens touchdown. He's building a case for a second consecutive All-Pro selection heading into a Week 9 matchup versus the Broncos.
