Early life

The son of professional basketball player Derrick Hamilton, Hamilton was born in Heraklion, the capital of the Greek island of Crete, on March 16, 2001. His father is African American and his mother is South Korean. Derrick Hamilton trains professional athletes but not his son. Kyle briefly lived in Russia and Israel before he was three, moving to the Atlanta area after his father retired from basketball.

Kyle Hamilton attended the Marist School in Brookhaven, Georgia, an Atlanta suburb and adjacent to the city; he played safety and wide receiver for their football team. He played in the 2019 All-American Bowl and committed to play college football at the University of Notre Dame in Notre Dame, Indiana. Kyle's older brother, Tyler played college basketball for University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia and for the College of William & Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia.

College career

In his second career game for Notre Dame in 2019, Hamilton intercepted a deflected pass and went 35 yards into the endzone for his first career touchdown. Two weeks later against Virginia, Hamilton had one interception and two solo tackles in a 35–20 win. Hamilton played in 13 games as a freshman with one start and recorded 41 tackles, four interceptions, and a touchdown. He was named a Freshman All-American by the Football Writers Association of America.

Hamilton took over as a starter as a sophomore in 2020. He had an interception in the 2020 ACC Championship Game against the Clemson Tigers. He was named First-Team All-ACC after recording 63 tackles, six pass breakups, and an interception.

Hamilton was the starter again in 2021, but due to a knee injury, he was sidelined after just seven games. He finished the season as consensus All-American who had 34 combined tackles (19 solo), three interceptions, and four pass deflections. On December 10, 2021, Hamilton declared for the 2022 NFL draft.
