Baltimore Ravens safety Kyle Hamilton\u00a0has established himself as arguably the best safety in the NFL today, and attracted quite the following as a result.<\/p>\n

After all, Hamilton is one of the most electrifying defensive backs in the league, able to line up virtually anywhere on the field. He’s reliable in coverage and can lay some huge hits when needed, so he’s basically everything a team could want in a safety.<\/p>\n

Even just three years into his career, Hamilton is already inspiring young safeties with his play. South Carolina’s Nick Emmanwori, a potential first-round pick in this year’s NFL Draft, told reporters at the NFL Scouting Combine that he models his game after Hamilton, and that he’d\u00a0love to pair up with him\u00a0if the Ravens call his name.<\/p>\n

“He’s like a finesse player, he’s just all over the field, Swiss Army knife, he can do everything,” Emmanwori told reporters. “He shuts down the whole side of the field. I was watching some games and he made a play back to back to back, this dude’s amazing.”<\/p>\n
