Overview
- Baltimore announced a four-year extension for the All-Pro safety, with multiple outlets reporting $100.4 million total value, $82 million guaranteed and a $25.1 million average that resets the safety market.
- General manager Eric DeCosta said negotiations began before the offseason break and intensified about three weeks ago.
- The deal ties the 24-year-old to the Ravens through the 2030 season, according to agency Athletes First.
- Hamilton is a two-time Pro Bowler and 2023 first-team All-Pro with roughly 250 tackles, seven sacks and five interceptions in three seasons, and DeCosta described him as a defensive “unicorn.”
- With Hamilton secured, attention turns to other roster priorities such as a long-term plan for center Tyler Linderbaum and meshing new secondary pieces Jaire Alexander and rookie Malaki Starks.
