Ravens Insider: Ravens’ Kyle Hamilton limps off practice field but appears to avoid serious injury

The Ravens had a momentary scare when All-Pro safety Kyle Hamilton went down and then limped off the field with an apparent left leg injury late in practice Sunday afternoon in Owings Mills.

But coach John Harbaugh said Hamilton appears to be OK.

“Looks stable, looks good,” Harbaugh said. “We’ll continue to do tests tonight and tomorrow to make sure, but first indications are he’s just fine.”

With about 25 minutes left in the nearly 2 1/2-hour practice — Baltimore’s first since Friday night’s preseason opener against the Philadelphia Eagles — Hamilton was contesting a pass to tight end Riley Sharp when he lunged for the ball and crashed to the ground.

There did not appear much if any contact on the play. Hamilton stayed down on the ground and was attended to by trainers before getting up and limping off under his own power.

He then left the field and headed inside with two trainers.

Hamilton did not dress in the Ravens’ loss to the Eagles and, along with most of the regular starters, is not expected to play much if at all in Baltimore’s two remaining preseason games. The 14th overall draft pick in 2022, he is coming off his first All-Pro and Pro Bowl selection and is perhaps the Ravens’ best defensive player.

It’s also the second time he has suffered an injury scare after bumping knees with wide receiver Puka Nacua during Baltimore’s Week 14 game last season against the Los Angeles Rams. He returned the following week but injured the knee again in the Ravens’ Week 15 rout of the San Francisco 49ers and missed the next week’s game against the Miami Dolphins before returning in the playoffs.

Last season, Hamilton had 81 tackles, three sacks, 10 tackles for loss, 13 passes defended, four interceptions, including one he returned for a touchdown in a Week 4 win over the Cleveland Browns.
