The Ravens are starting to use rookie Kyle Hamilton the right way and you can see his progression. DP_NFL breaks down what's changed for Hamilton and how he can best be used going forward. RavensFlock
in the 2022 NFL Draft. Oh, how times have changed. Once draft season rolled around, analysts and fans soured on Hamilton and questioned his impact at the next level. He was said to be a poor athlete despite running 4.59 and hitting 38-inches on the vertical, all while measuring in at 6-foot-4 and 220 pounds.during the Ravens’ training camp went viral. To make matters worse, the Ravens attempted to play him more at free safety with deep alignment and two-high shells.
Over the past few weeks, the Ravens are leaning more into what Hamilton excelled in during his time at Notre Dame. Prior to his final season for the Fighting Irish, Hamilton saw more than 500 snaps at free safety compared to 210 snaps in the slot. It was not until his final season that they went slot and box alignment heavy for Hamilton.
The Ravens’ secondary is devoid of depth, especially at cornerback. Hamilton has seen an uptick in snaps in the box and the nickel position, decreasing his snaps at free safety. This allows him to play with his natural instincts, leading to faster and improved performances. Hamilton has the range to be an impactful player in the box, especially versus the run. He covers space and closes on the football quickly, limiting big and explosive runs.
Even though there were legitimate concerns about his speed as a deep-field safety, his range and trigger downhill are pretty good. He has enough burst and explosion to erase the cushion and get in the picture. To add, versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, he saw snaps in man coverage versus tight ends in the low red zone and made great impactful plays on the football. This type of versatility and growth in his game is encouraging for the rest of his rookie campaign.
