For the first time since Monday night, Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins addressed the media about his mental state following the tackle with Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin.
After Higgins caught a pass from Joe Burrow, it was Hamlin who tackled him to the ground. It was a normal football play. As Hamlin stood up from the tackle, he then immediately collapsed on the field.
He suffered a cardiac arrest and nearly 10 minutes of CPR was administered on him before he was taken by ambulance to University of Cincinnati Medical Center where he remains.
