Who Should I Start? Kerby Joseph or Kyle Hamilton

Detroit Lions safety Kerby Joseph (arm) will not be cleared to practice until training camp this summer while he recovers from an arm injury. Joseph suffered the arm injury during the NFC Championship game loss to the San Francisco 49ers, and it's going to keep him out of workouts this spring. But as long as the 23-year-old doesn't suffer a setback when he gets back on the field in training camp, he should be ready for the start of the 2024 regular season and will operate as Detroit's starting free safety. The former third-rounder in 2022 out of Illinois has recorded 164 tackles (124 solo), eight interceptions, 19 passes defended, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery in 32 games (29 starts) in his first two years in the NFL. When healthy, Joseph is on the fantasy radar in IDP leagues for depth at the DB position.

Baltimore Ravens safety Kyle Hamilton (knee) was estimated as a limited participant in practice on Tuesday as his team began preparing for their Saturday matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Hamilton missed his team's Week 17 win over the Miami Dolphins with a knee issue but appears to be trending in a positive direction as the Ravens prepare to take on their divisional rivals in the regular-season finale. That being said, Baltimore already has the No. 1 seed in the AFC wrapped up so they could opt to hold one of their defensive stars out of action this weekend.
