Kyle Hamilton injury update: Will Ravens star safety play vs. Steelers?

All-Pro safety Kyle Hamilton said he will play Sunday at the Steelers in a battle for first place in the AFC North

The Ravens (7-3) are heading to Pittsburgh for a gigantic matchup against the Steelers (7-2) for first place in the AFC North.

One concern for Baltimore is the health and status of All-Pro safety Kyle Hamilton. Hamilton’s ankle injury sidelined him for Wednesday’s practice, but he’s been practicing the past two days.

On Friday, head coach John Harbaugh said that Hamilton would play against the Steelers, and the safety also confirmed the news.

Ravens outside linebacker Kyle Van Noy also returned to practice Thursday after missing Wednesday’s practice due to illness and should be good to go for Sunday. Tight end Isaiah Likely (hamstring) was a full participant after returning to the field Wednesday.

Hamilton has the second-most tackles (71) and passes defensed (seven) on the team, as well as two sacks, three tackles for loss, and one forced fumble. He is Baltimore’s highest-graded defender on Pro Football Focus by a wide margin.
