Kyle Hamilton is day-to-day after suffering a grade 1 MCL sprain

Kyle Hamilton diagnosed with grade 1 MCL sprain; Labeled ‘day-to-day’ with chance to play this Sunday

The Baltimore Ravens avoided a significant injury to a star player following their thrilling 37-31 overtime victory over the Los Angeles Rams.

According to Bleacher Report’s Jordan Schultz, safety Kyle Hamilton suffered a grade 1 MCL sprain during the game.

Head Coach John Harbaugh labeled Hamilton “day-to-day” during his Monday press conference, adding that he has a chance to play against the Jacksonville Jaguars this Sunday.

Hamilton exited the game and was taken to the locker room with a knee injury but returned to the field of play later in the game before leaving again, this time for the remainder of the contest.

The news that the second-year budding star will not miss much time, if any, is a massive sigh of relief for the Ravens as they push for the AFC’s No. 1 seed. Hamilton has become a driving force of one of the NFL’s best defenses this season with his playmaking ability and versatility to play all over the field.

With his ninth tackle for loss this season coming against the Rams, Hamilton set a new franchise record for tackles for loss by a defensive back, previously set by the legendary Hall of Famer Ed Reed with eight in 2003.

With high-powered offenses like the San Francisco 49ers and Miami Dolphins coming up on the schedule, Baltimore will need Hamilton more than ever.
