Ravens Star Hamilton Credits Chiefs DB as Mentor

Baltimore Ravens star Kyle Hamilton recently highlighted Kansas City Chiefs safety Alohi Gilman as his most influential mentor in football. Hamilton shared that during his freshman year at Notre Dame, Gilman provided vital support, helping him navigate the transition to a new environment and the rigors of college football. Hamilton recalled feeling overwhelmed by the intensity of camp, even questioning his decision to play football.

Gilman's advice helped Hamilton put his experience into perspective. The mentorship continued when Gilman briefly joined the Ravens last season, allowing for a full-circle moment before his signing with the Chiefs. Gilman, who recently agreed to a three-year, $24.75 million deal with the Chiefs, is expected to bring the same supportive mentality to his new team.
