Kyle Hamilton is arguably the most impactful defensive back in the NFL. If not for his Week 11 opponent, Myles Garrett, playing on a level not seen in decades, the Ravens’ star defensive back might be the runaway favorite for the NFL’s Defensive Player of the Year.
Baltimore parted ways with Odafe Oweh, sacrificing pressure off the edge to get Hamilton’s former Notre Dame teammate, friend, and college mentor, Alohi Gilman.

Hamilton dominated Cleveland on Sunday and, in the process, made NFL and Ravens’ team history.
