Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin has been discharged from a New York hospital just over a week after he collapsed on-field during a game against the Cincinnati Bengals, team officials announced Wednesday.
Hamlin was admitted to Buffalo General Medical Center on Monday after being released from the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, where he had spent a week recovering following an on-field cardiac arrest on Jan. 2. In New York, Hamlin underwent “a comprehensive medical evaluation as well as a series of cardiac, neurological and vascular testing on Tuesday,” according to the Bills.
“We have completed a series of tests and evaluations, and in consultation with the team physicians, we are confident that Damar can be safely discharged and continue his rehabilitation at home and with the Bills,” Dr. Jamie Nadler, a critical care physician who served as the lead of Hamlin’s care team in New York, said Wednesday in a statement.
