The Baltimore Ravens signed All-Pro safety Kyle Hamilton to a record four-year, $100.4 million contract extension, Athletes First announced Wednesday.
The agency said that the pact is worth $25.1 million per year and includes $82 million guaranteed. Hamilton, the highest-paid safety in NFL history, is now tied to the Ravens through the 2030 season.
“We think this recognizes his impact on our team and in the community,” Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta said. “We’re thrilled to get this done and off my plate.”
Hamilton, who joined the Ravens as the No. 14 overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, made the Pro Bowl during the last two seasons and received first-team All-Pro honors in 2023.
The safety totaled a career-high 107 combined tackles, nine passes defensed, two forced fumbles, two sacks, a fumble recovery and an interception over 17 starts last season.
Pro Football Focus gave Hamilton the second-best defensive rating among safeties who were in for at least 50% of the maximum snaps played at the position last season, trailing only Kerby Joseph of the Detroit Lions.
Hamilton and the Ravens will face the Buffalo Bills in their season opener Sept. 7 in Orchard Park, N.Y.
