traveled to Ohio to take on the Cincinnati Bengals (+5) in a Monday Night Football matchup with incredibly high stakes in relation to the AFC playoff picture. The Bills came into the game with a 12-3 record, while the Bengals were 11-4. Buffalo was on a six-game winning streak; Cincinnati’s was at seven. Both teams were guaranteed to finish as a Top-3 seed in the AFC, but both teams still had a shot at the No. 1 seed.
Then, tragedy struck. Ten minutes into the game, Bills safety Damar Hamlin collapsed after making a seemingly routine tackle on Bengals wideout Tee Higgins.
