Damar Hamlin remains hospitalized and in critical condition, but there has been some positive news about his health over the past two days. The Buffalo Bills provided the latest.
The Bills said in a brief statement on Wednesday that Hamlin has shown “signs of improvement” while in intensive care at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center.
That is consistent with what some of Hamlin’s family members and friends have said since Monday’s incident.
Hamlin, 24, collapsed on the field after making a tackle in the first quarter of the Bills’ “Monday Night Football” game against the Cincinnati Bengals. The defensive back suffered a cardiac arrest and had his heartbeat restored by medical personnel at Paycor Stadium. He was then rushed to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, where he has been in critical condition since.
Buffalo’s game against the Bengals has been postponed. The NFL is reportedly considering multiple options for how to proceed.
