The Bills plan to honor safety Damar Hamlin with a series of tributes Sunday in the aftermath of his on-field medical emergency in Monday’s game against the Bengals. But apart from symbolic gestures, the franchise plans to take care of the 24-year-old financially by paying his salary in full for the remainder of the season, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
Hamlin–who is currently in the second year of his four-year, $3.64 million rookie contract–has a standard split in his deal that agrees to pay him a lower rate if he lands on injured reserve.
