Positivity is needed, and Ravens fans and the media found a reason to smile while listening to Kyle Hamilton&#8217;s postgame press conference.<\/p>\n<p>Kyle Hamilton apologizes to Ravens fans for the results and some of his previous statements.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing can be said to explain this horrendous start to the Ravens&#8217; season, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baltimoreravens.com\/news\/transcripts-ravens-vs-chiefs-week-4\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:while speaking with select media members;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">while speaking with select media members<\/a>, All-Pro safety Kyle Hamilton did his best to try.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;First, I just want to apologize to the fans. The product that we&#8217;re putting on the field right now is not up to par with what the Ravens have been in the past and have been in the recent past. I think we know that. We&#8217;re trying our best to correct it, but obviously, something is wrong, so it&#8217;s up to all of us to try and fix that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this week, <a href=\"https:\/\/sports.yahoo.com\/article\/ravens-pro-steps-defend-baltimores-140655969.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Hamilton stepped up to defend his defensive coordinator, Zach Orr;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Hamilton stepped up to defend his defensive coordinator, Zach Orr<\/a>. While doing so, some found offense because he used the word &#8216;spoiled&#8217; to describe the Ravens fan base. Listening to his tone leads one to believe that he hadn&#8217;t used the term in a derogatory manner, but he found cause to make amends anyway.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Also, I feel like early in the week, I used a poor choice of words, just saying that Ravens fans were spoiled. I retract that. I meant in the sense that Ravens fans have been accustomed to great defense [and] great teams. [There] haven&#8217;t been a lot of teams in Ravens history, since 1996, to underachieve to the point where fans felt disappointed in the season as a whole, and I feel like as of right now, in Week 4, obviously, [there is] a long way to go in this season, we&#8217;re disappointed, and I&#8217;m sure the fans are disappointed, too. We have to get it fixed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This sums everything up perfectly:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have to put a product and a team on the field that fans are proud to say they root for, proud to say they spend money on tickets to come to the games and support us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ravens fans aren&#8217;t going anywhere, but we get the theory. The heartbreak suffered during the postseason recently birthed a hunger for a revenge tour. Things certainly haven&#8217;t gone as anyone has hoped.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s time to refocus and play some better football. Sure, we know these press conferences are a part of the deal, but raise your hand if you&#8217;ve also grown fatigued by all of the continuing conversation.<\/p>\n<p>This article originally appeared on Ravens Wire: <a href=\"https:\/\/ravenswire.usatoday.com\/story\/sports\/nfl\/ravens\/2025\/09\/29\/kyle-hamilton-apologizes-for-calling-ravens-fans-spoiled\/86414371007\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Kyle Hamilton apologizes for calling Ravens fans spoiled;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Kyle Hamilton apologizes for calling Ravens fans spoiled<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"What does one say?
