A report Monday night from ESPN's Don Van Natta Jr. examines the decision to stop last Monday's game between the Buffalo Bills and the Bengals in Cincinnati after defensive back Damar Hamlin went into cardiac arrest and required CPR from Bills trainer Denny Kellington.
Van Natta quoted a team official as saying, "The league did not cancel the game. The Bills and the Bengals canceled the game."
An excerpt from Van Natta's story:
That final decision might have belonged to (NFL commisioner Roger) Goodell, but the first instinct not to play came on the field in Cincinnati.
