3. Will Kyle Hamilton remain in the slot for the Baltimore Ravens?

The Baltimore Ravens will have tough decisions to make in their secondary. They started Kyle Hamilton in the slot for the second straight week, but after an injury to Daryl Worley, he shifted back and the team moved Arthur Maulet into the slot.

Maulet played well, so the team may try to ride with him. However, Marcus Williams is looking set to return, so the Ravens may use this time to play him in place of Worley and keep Hamilton in the slot. Hamilton is fine as a strong safety, but when he is closer to the line of scrimmage, he can impact the game so much more.

He can blitz, and he can defend the run. The Steelers have Allen Robinson in the slot so the size will help this week as well. Is this the plan, or do we see the Ravens change things and go back to Hamilton and Williams starting at safety with Maulet in the slot?
