Bills’ Damar Hamlin: ‘I plan on making a comeback to the NFL’ (video)

Damar Hamlin announces his NFL comeback with the #Bills (video):

The Buffalo Bills have Damar Hamlin back in the fold at their early offseason workouts.

That alone is a spectacular update that many believed would never come. Hamlin, 25, saw a trio of specialists relating to the cardiac arrest he sustained during a late-season contest against the Cincinnati Bengals in 2022.

The national spotlight quickly turned to Hamlin’s recovery, and doctors all cleared him to resume working out.

“They’re all in agreement,” general manager Brandon Beane said. “They’re all in lockstep with what this was and he is cleared to resume full activities.”

But Hamlin is not settling. Like Beane, he addressed his return to the practice field.

Hamlin set the bar high while doing so: He’s planning to be back in the NFL, full time.

“I’m here to announce I plan on making a comeback to the NFL,” an emotional Hamlin said. “My heart is still in the game. I love the game.”

Hamlin went on to explain that he sustained Commotio Cordis when he went into cardiac arrest. It’s an injury that occurs due to a direct blow to a person’s heart, which is what many believed had happened to Hamlin.
