Buffalo Bills’ safety Damar Hamlin is ready to return to the field.
According to a report from Fox Sports, Hamlin has been cleared for on-field activity just months after collapsing from cardiac arrest during a game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Bills general manager Brandon Beane made the announcement Tuesday.
“He’s seen three additional specialists, most recently on Friday, and they’re all in agreement,” Beane told reporters. “It’s not two-to-one, or three-to-one. They’re all in lockstep of what this was and that he is cleared to resume full activities, just like anyone else who is coming back from an injury or whatever.”
“So, he’s fully cleared, he’s here, and he is of the mindset – he is in a great headspace – to come back and make his return.”

From Fox Sports:
During “Monday Night Football” against the Bengals, Hamlin fell to the turf following a tackle and was administered CPR before an ambulance rushed him to the hospital.
He was released from the University of Cincinnati Medical Center nearly one week later before heading to another hospital in Buffalo.
While his recovery was remarkable, whether he could continue his football career was a different conversation altogether.
In an interview with Michael Strahan that aired on Super Bowl Sunday, Hamlin said he hoped to return to the game.
“Eventually. That’s always the goal. I’m allowing that to be in God’s hands,” Hamlin said.
