Damar Hamlin’s fight since he went into cardiac arrest on Monday night has inspired many people across the league. Less than a week later, Hamlin has begun to breathe on his own again while his neurological progress is strong.
The most inspirational Hamlin moment came when he woke up during the week, with his first words being a simple question about the game.
Former Bills head coach Rex Ryan was particularly moved by Hamlin’s fight and competitiveness, and he expressed so while fighting tears on air Saturday afternoon.
