After his career ended at Alabama with frustration over injury, Washington Redskins linebacker Shaun Dion Hamilton is carving out his role in the NFL. Over the last two seasons, Hamilton has been earning his playing time on defense going from the practice squad to now as a member of the active roster.
On Sunday against the Miami Dolphins, all his hard work turned into results as he picked off quarterback Josh Rosen late in the third quarter.
