The Buffalo Bills released a statement on Thursday providing an update on Damar Hamlin —and the news is good.
According to The New York Post, the Bills say Hamlin is moving in the right direction after he collapsed on the field earlier this week during a Monday Night Football matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals.
The team said in a statement Thursday morning that the Bills safety is “neurologically intact” and has “shown remarkable improvement over the past 24 hours.”

From The New York Post:
Hamlin collapsed in the first quarter of the Bills’ game against the Bengals on Monday and was administered CPR on the field after he stopped breathing. Hamlin was rushed to University of Cincinnati Medical Center, where he remains in the ICU.
The Bills said that he remains “critically ill” but “his lungs continue to heal and he is making steady progress.”
“Our boy is doing better, awake and showing more signs of improvement. Thank you God. Keep the prayers coming please. All love 3!” tweeted Bills cornerback Kaiir Elam.
