Sports world even outside of NFL send support to Bills’ Damar Hamlin – Bills Wire
The ongoing Damar Hamlin situation has struck a cord. One that went well beyond the NFL family.
Players and teams from across the football league have sent messages, donations, and prayers to Hamlin after he collapsed to the ground against the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday.
The Buffalo Bills have gone on to state that he’s in critical condition following a cardiac arrest.
Even though they don’t play football, other professional athletes, like most others, are fans at their core. While playing their respective sports, many athletes watch other leagues, especially in a case like Monday when it’s prime-time football.
After watching what unfolded or upon hearing updates, pro athletes and teams from around the world of sports sent messages of support to the Bills defender.
A collection of those can be found below:
