Cowboy's Safety Bolts For Baltimore

Former Cowboy's Safety goes to Ravens
Former Cowboy's Safety Ken Hamlin has confirmed that he signed a one-year contract to play behind current S Ed Reed.
The 6-2, 209lbs. Hamlin, who turned 29 January 20th, would provide some insurance for Ed Reed, who is recovering from offseason hip surgery.
We haven't really heard much about the recovery status on Reed, but it does appear he will not be avalible at the beginning of training camp at least. It does make you wonder however just how much the Ravens are worried about his recovery time.
Reed is a six-time pro-bowl selection, and the most feared ball-hawking DB who isn't named Troy Polamalu. So for the Raven's to go out and get Hamlin (who is a pro-bowler himself), it would seem that the Ravens felt they needed to make a move.
Hamlin earned his pro-bowl berth in 2007 playing for the Cowboy's, after playing his first four seasons in Seattle. A pretty effective player in his first two seasons with Dallas, but last season he caught a bit of the injury bug, missing four games due to a high-ankle sprain. He had just 52 tackles, and no interceptions.
Hamlin was cut by the Cowboy's back in April. There has yet to be a formal announcement, but Hamlin said he is "ready to get going, and help his team win"
