Dame Hamlin update: The Bills release a statement regarding his health
The Bills released a statement regarding Hamlin’s health Tuesday afternoon. While the update didn’t include a ton of new information, any is good news in that regard, especially as the NFL world fears the worst:
Damar Hamlin spent last night in the intensive care unit and remains there today in critical condition at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center. We are grateful and thankful for the outpouring of support we have received so far.”
He made the NFL Mental health support Resources available not only to all the players who were on the field Monday night, but to all 32 teams. The league is a strong fraternity, and even those who may not know Hamlin are affected in one way or another.
Monday’s incident is always the worst-case scenario and fear for all the players on the field and anyone close to them.
We can only hope Hamlin recovers from this traumatic accident. It is in our thoughts.
