OWINGS MILLS, Md. — The Baltimore Ravens received some encouraging news regarding one of their top defensive players.
An MRI on Monday revealed safety Kyle Hamilton has a sprained MCL and is considered week-to-week, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter. It initially appeared that Hamilton significantly injured his left knee when a Los Angeles Rams defender collided into him late in the first quarter of Sunday’s 37-31 overtime win.
A first-round pick a year ago, Hamilton has become one of the most versatile playmakers on the NFL’s second-ranked defense. He has recorded 69 tackles, three sacks and two interceptions this season. Before he was hurt Sunday, Hamilton set a Ravens single-season record with his ninth tackle for loss, surpassing Ed Reed’s mark from 2003.
The Ravens (10-3), who currently hold the No. 1 seed in the AFC, play at the AFC South-leading Jacksonville Jaguars (8-5) on Sunday night.
