Season so far
With only one game played so far in 2026, it is still very early in the season, but Kyle Hamilton began his campaign on solid footing with a 76.7 overall grade across 68 snaps against Dallas. His strong start was heavily driven by his run defense (79.1), highlighted by decisive downhill triggers and short-yardage stops in the A-gap and on outside zone looks. In coverage (70.4), he provided splash plays that included a key third-down pass breakup and an explosive drive to swat a swing pass. A few minor blemishes, notably vacating an intermediate zone and taking a wide fit on an explosive run, slightly checked his ceiling for the day. Because he has only logged a single appearance to date, there is no multi-week trajectory to evaluate yet, but his initial outing confirms high-level versatility.
