The NFL announced Thursday that it will not reschedule the AFC faceoff between the Buffalo Bills and the Cincinnati Bengals after safety Damar Hamlin suffered a terrifying collapse and subsequent cardiac arrest during Monday Night Football earlier this week.
The good news is that Hamlin survived the ordeal and is able to communicate in writing, although he is not yet able to speak. One of his teammates described him Wednesday as “awake and showing more signs of improvement.”
"You won the game of life." ❤️🙏
