Breaking: Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin is attending today's AFC Divisional Round game, his first since going into cardiac arrest on the field three weeks ago.
His presence was enough to uplift his teammates, who after Hamlin's collapse surrounded him as medical teams who rushed the field used CPR and an automatic external defibrillator to restart his heart.
The Bills have not disclosed the results of tests Hamlin has undergone to determine why his heart stopped after he was struck in the chest while making what appeared to be a routine tackle. Hamlin, who is originally from the Pittsburgh area, live-tweeted while watching Buffalo's 35-23 season-ending win over New England from his hospital bed at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center on Jan. 8. Last weekend, he live-tweeted from home while watching the Bills' 34-31 win over Miami in the wild-card playoff.
