The son of professional basketball player Derrick Hamilton, Hamilton was born in Heraklion, the capital of the Greek island of Crete, on March 16, 2001.[1] His father is African-American and his mother is Korean.[2] He briefly lived in Russia before moving to the Atlanta area after his father retired from the sport.[3]

Hamilton attended the Marist School in Brookhaven, Georgia, where he played safety and wide receiver for their football team. He played in the 2019 All-American Bowl and committed to play college football at the University of Notre Dame.[4][5]

In his second career game for Notre Dame in 2019, Hamilton intercepted a deflected pass and went 35 yards into the endzone for his first career touchdown.[6] Two weeks later against Virginia, Hamilton had one interception and two solo tackles in a 35–20 win.[7] Hamilton played in 13 games as a freshman with one start and recorded 41 tackles, four interceptions, and a touchdown.[8][9][10] He was named a Freshman All-American by the Football Writers Association of America.[11]

Hamilton was again the starter in 2021, but due to a knee injury, he was sidelined after just seven games.

Hamilton was named the starting strong safety for the 2023 season. In Week 3 against the Indianapolis Colts, Hamilton tied the NFL and broke the franchise record for sacks in the first half of a game with three. He also had nine tackles (seven solo), two tackles for loss, a forced fumble, and a pass deflection. The Ravens would end up losing, 22–19.[29] In their Week 4 game against the Browns, Hamilton caught the first interception of his NFL career while also recording five solo tackles and a pass deflection. This would seal their 28–3 victory.[30] In Week 6 against the Tennessee Titans, Hamilton was ejected for targeting after hitting wide receiver Chris Moore in the head while he was defenseless.[31] He was fined $20,524 for the hit.[32]

In Week 10 against the Browns, Hamilton scored his first NFL touchdown when he tipped a pass from Deshaun Watson to himself to score an 18-yard pick-six to give the Ravens a 7–0 lead on the second play from scrimmage.[33] However, the Ravens would end up losing, 31–33.[34] In Week 14 against the Los Angeles Rams, Hamilton bumped knees with wide receiver Puka Nacua, sidelining him for the remainder of the contest.[35] On Christmas Day in Week 16 against the San Francisco 49ers, Hamilton recorded two interceptions as the Ravens won 33–19. During the game, however, Hamilton again injured his knee in the fourth quarter and sat out the remainder of the win.[36] Despite not finishing the game, he was named AFC Defensive Player of the Week.[37] Before the Ravens' Week 17 game against the Miami Dolphins, Hamilton was ruled out.[38] Before Week 18, Hamilton was named to the 2023 AFC Pro Bowl Team.[39]

Hamilton played in 15 games during the 2023 season and started in all 15 of them. He tallied 81 total tackles (63 solo), three sacks, ten tackles for loss, 13 pass deflections, four interceptions, and a defensive touchdown.[40]
