  • Lions' Shaun Dion Hamilton: Sticking with Detroit

    The Lions re-signed Hamilton (undisclosed) on Monday.

    Hamilton missed the entire 2021 campaign due to an undisclosed injury, and he now heads into his fourth NFL season. Detroit re-signing Hamilton could speak to optimism about his recovery ahead of OTAs, but the 26-year-old nonetheless remains off the fantasy radar in all but the deepest of IDP formats.

The 2018 sixth-round pick played 14 games (three starts) for Washington this year, posting 21 tackles.

  • Football Team's Shaun Dion Hamilton: Moves to injured reserve

    Hamilton (elbow) was placed on injured reserve Monday.

    The 25-year-old made a spot start in place of Kevin Pierre-Louis (ankle) Sunday against the Seahawks, but he's now sidelined by the elbow injury. Hamilton will be sidelined for the final two games of the regular season plus the opening round of the playoffs, should Washington advance.

  • Football Team's Shaun Dion Hamilton: Set for increased role

    Hamilton will replace Kevin Pierre-Louis in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Seattle, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Hamilton has been quiet in a depth role this season, notching 17 tackles (11 solo) across 13 games. The Alabama product will get a chance to assume the starting role Sunday with Pierre-Louis (ankle) missing the contest. Expect Pierre-Louis to return to the starting role at weakside linebacker once he returns from injury.

  • Redskins' Shaun Dion Hamilton: Notches first sack of season in win

  • Redskins' Shaun Dion Hamilton: On track for season opener

    Hamilton (chest) was a full practice participant Wednesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM Radio reports.

    Hamilton suffered the chest injury during the preseason opener and did not play in another preseason game, but he appears ready to go for Week 1. The 23-year-old is expected to work as a starter at inside linebacker after totaling 27 tackles (19 solo) and 1.5 sacks during his rookie campaign.

  • Redskins' Shaun Dion Hamilton: Unable to suit up

    Hamilton (chest) didn't play in Thursday's preseason loss to the Bengals.

    Listed as a starter on the preseason depth chart, Hamilton could be tasked with a three-down role after the Redskins lost Reuben Foster to a severe knee injury and later released Mason Foster. Such a role likely would lead to IDP utility, but Hamilton first needs to get healthy before Week 1. Other candidates for playing time at inside linebacker include Jon Bostic, Cole Holcomb and Josh Harvey-Clemons.

  • Redskins' Shaun Dion Hamilton: Leaves game Thursday

    Hamilton suffered a chest injury and will not return to Thursday's preseason game against the Browns, Kareem Copeland of The Washington Post reports.

    It's unclear how Hamilton picked up the injury, but it's serious enough to keep him out of the game. Hamilton is expected to take on a starting role at linebacker this season, so his absence for the rest of the game could be for precautionary reasons. Expect the team to comment on his status following the game.

  • Redskins' Shaun Dion Hamilton: Working with starting defense

    Hamilton worked with the starting defense at OTAs in late May, Tarik El-Bashir of The Athletic reports.

    Washington has a few different options to replace Reuben Foster, who suffered a torn ACL on May 20. The team may also opt to use a rotation, with some combination of Hamilton, Josh Harvey-Clemons, Cole Holcomb and Jon Bostic all in the mix to get playing time alongside Mason Foster at inside linebacker. A 2018 sixth-round pick, Hamilton played 247 snaps on special teams and just 129 on defense during his rookie season, but he did manage 27 tackles (19 solo), 1.5 sacks and a forced fumble.

  • Redskins' Shaun Dion Hamilton: Finishes rookie season strong

    Hamilton finished his rookie season with 28 tackles (19 solo), 1.5 sacks and a forced fumble in 16 games.

    Hamilton got the vast majority of his playing time in December, starting the final four games of the season while Zach Brown saw his own role reduced. Team tackle leader Mason Foster is expected back in 2019, but there should be a nice opportunity for Hamilton to earn a starting job with Brown shaping up as a likely cap casualty. The 2018 sixth-round pick may need to compete with 2017 seventh-round pick Josh Harvey-Clemons, who has strictly been used on passing downs.

  • Redskins' Shaun Dion Hamilton: Clear of injury designation

    Hamilton (shoulder) won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Kareem Copeland of The Washington Post reports.

    Hamilton started over Zach Brown last week but suffered a strained shoulder and began the week as a limited participant, but was able to practice fully Friday. It remains unclear whether Brown or Hamilton will draw the start at Jacksonville, muddling any IDP potential for both players.

  • Redskins' Shaun Dion Hamilton: Strains shoulder in loss

    Hamilton strained his shoulder in Sunday's game against the Giants, Kareem Copeland of The Washington Post reports.

    Hamilton drew the start over Zach Brown on Sunday and totaled a team-high eight tackles before exiting with his injury. He had seen just nine defensive snaps prior to Sunday, and he performed fairly well in his starting debut. It's unclear if the strain will sideline him in Week 15, or if he'll be able to play through the injury. He should be considered questionable for the time being.
