On Monday night, Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin made a routine tackle in the first quarter against the Cincinnati Bengals. The aftermath of the play was anything but routine.
After Hamlin popped back up and adjusted his facemask, he collapsed to the ground. As his teammates circled around him, their anguished reactions were unlike anything we have ever seen in a football game. Medical personnel at the stadium administered life-saving measures on the field, including CPR and AED shocks to re-start Hamlin’s heart, before placing him into an ambulance.
The last update from the team came at 1:48 a.
