Back in Week 17, Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin needed medical attention on the football field at Paycor Stadium after a hit. After receiving CPR and being transported to a medical facility, it was revealed that Hamlin had suffered cardiac arrest, and that he was in critical condition. Not only was the football world following it, but also those who don’t watch football. Now, weeks after the incident, Hamlin is out of the hospital and recovering.
On Saturday night, the Bills posted an emotional video of Hamlin, sitting in the film room at the team’s facility, to thank everyone who helped him out and supported him throughout his recovery.
