Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin has shown "substantial improvement," his doctors said Thursday, three days removed from suffering cardiac arrest during Monday's game against the Bengals in Cincinnati.
Dr. Timothy Pritts and Dr. William Knight of the University of Cincinnati Medical Center addressed the media in the first statement from doctors and detailed Hamlin's recovery as well as the road ahead.
"We would like to share that there has been substantial improvement in his condition over the past 24 hours," Pritts said. "We had significant concern about him after the injury and after the event on the field and he is making substantial progress.
