News: Damar Hamlin Injury thread (Breathing Tube Removed!)

[Grenic]

Kinda glad I didn't see this live, please be ok

Who all remembers Darryl Stingley? That might have been the last life threatening event that happened during a game.

Don’t recall him or that event but there was a soccer player with a similar event in the last few years.

Good for the coaches. Looks like they got their teams to pack up.

They immediately jumped on him with resuscitation. He had almost no down time and probably didn't go without oxygen long at all.

Those are the type you get back. The fact he is pulsing now is great.

If he wasn't hypoxic long or at all he stands a good chance at making a full recovery. HOWEVER, the underlying cause is unknown and that complicates things.

Hoping and praying for the best.

The fact he is alive and has a heartbeat is good news.

He is at a very high quality hospital. I feel confident they will save him.

This thread is for fans to express thoughts and concerns for Damar Hamlin. I advise against trolling or joking about it.

Pleased to see so many fellow members show humanity in this situation.

 

[BleedSilverandBlue]

May the Lord bring comfort to his family and healing to Damar.

Life is precious and fragile.

I actually thought of Kevin Everett (also of the Bills) that nearly passed away on the field in 2007, Im really hoping this young man pulls through……

 

[Nickyd2208]

i can deal with all the ankle breaks, legs being bent the other way fingers being dislocated that just comes with the sport

but never this, this is something that shouldnt come with the sport

I hear ya buddy, absolutely crazy. Thoughts to Damar and his family.

 

[JW82]

Be OK young man..

Dear God or Anyone Listening,

Please save Damar Hamlin's life and restore him fully. May this moment cause us all to cherish life...and one another...more deeply.

Definitely, and I pray that he does pull through this.

 

[Hawkeye19]

Surreal. Been praying for the kid and his family and teammates. Life is precious. Glad they called the game.

45 years of watching football haven't seen anything like this, ever.

Exactly.

CPR 9 mins not in controlled environment not good - did they get his pads off quickly? Administration of oxygen quickly?. Guessing he went v fib. Need defibrillation.

45 years of watching football haven't seen anything like this, ever.

I remember when Jack Tatum hit Darrell stingily,that hit was much worse,imo

 

[CowboysLakerBamaFan]

Watching the Bills and Bengals with their helmets off, distraught, makes you realize so many of these players are just kids.

Jamar Chase, Josh Allen, etc....they're just baby-faces,....with gigantic bodies. But they're kids...some of them 6 or 7 years removed from getting their freaking driver's license.

I was at my current job 15 years ago. 15 years ago Hamlin was 9 years old.

 

[tyke1doe]

Dear Lord Jesus, please heal this young man, Damar Hamlin. Let him recover quickly and fully.
In Your Name, amen!

 

[Clove]

This gives me hope for humanity. Here we are, fans of the Dallas Cowboys who fight every day, and yet, we all come together. There's a reason I've been here for now 18 years. We're pulling for you young man.

Lots of people talking about this online. When I saw the replay, my first thought was that he took a shoulder right to his heart in a way that is very rare for football. Apparently this condition occurs if you hit the wrong area at exactly the wrong time. Since they got him really fast, hopefully he will be fine.
