Another week has come and gone and more hardware is headed towards freshman safety Kyle Hamilton.
After recording his fourth interception of the season and three tackles versus Boston College, Hamilton was named to the Pro Football Focus College Football Week 13 Eckrich Team of the Week.
The National Defense of the Week is headlined by none other than Chase Young and the historic pace he's on.
For just how good he was (and has been) – đź“° ⬇️ https://t.co/x3mahIuBLn pic.twitter.com/bvAnoM2C3k

Pro Football Focus summed up Hamilton’s week with the following:
The Fighting Irish have a bright future with Hamilton roaming the backend of their defense. He recorded four total tackles against bost College and saw three passes come his way as the primary coverage defender. Allowing just one reception for seven yards, Hamilton broke up another and intercepted the third pass his way to see just a 2.8 passer rating into his coverage.
Hamilton’s four interceptions are tied for the most by any freshman in the nation, unfortunately that target he allowed after his interception evened up his totals for the year between personal interceptions and receptions allowed – an absurd stat to consider.

With Isaiah Pryor committed to play in the secondary next year you can’t help but feel good about the future of Notre Dame’s secondary as Hamilton appears to be one of the schools all-time greats in the making.
