Baltimore Ravens safety Kyle Hamilton left Sunday’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers early after a scary helmet-to-helmet collision with a teammate.
Hamilton got hurt early in the third quarter while trying to contest a short pass intended for wide receiver Calvin Austin III. Hamilton slammed into fellow safety Alohi Gilman, leaving both players needing medical attention on the field at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh, Pa.

Both players were evaluated for a concussion. While Gilman was able to return to the game, Hamilton ended up being carted off the field. The All-Pro defensive back was later ruled out for the remainder of the contest with a concussion.

The good news for Ravens fans is that Hamilton was able to walk off the field under his own power and even dapped up Aaron Rodgers before he was carted off.

Hamilton has been one of the Ravens’ most vital defenders over the last three seasons. The Korean-American Pro Bowler ended his season with 105 combined tackles, which ranked second on the team.
Hamilton had a team-best nine tackles Sunday before he was ruled out in the opening minutes of the third quarter.
