Mike Tirico is covering this so beautifully, and showing fans of both teams outside UC medical center.

Basically, medically-induced coma right now. Run tests, monitor vitals, pray that brain activity is unimpeded.

If I were to speculate, Bills will stay overnight, game will be played tomorrow night barring any turn for the worse and fans would keep their stubs for re-entry.

How must Tee Higgins feeling right now?

Of course he is blameless. But it must be a horrible feeling

I can't imagine. It was a freak accident.

I get it’s a business and a sport but I can’t even fathom playing this game. Just terrible news…

Praying for Hamlin to come out safe.

Was this caused by the tackling technique. Because it felt like a regular tackle. The way the game is played will change if it was tackling technique.

It looked like a clean hit to me.

Hopefully this means rumors of him stabilizing are true

 

[Hoofbite]

The scariest part was how everyone on the field knew something was wrong immediately

ESPN just said no press conference tonight

 

[T-RO]

These Bengals fans get it: LIFE.

 

[quickccc]

hopefully he can get back to a point to where he is breathing on his own again ...

Highest Prayers with this young man.

After seeing this, players have every right to get maxiumum guaranteed money, mainly contact players such as running backs, wrs, linemen. Heck with the cap. They are putting their bodies and lives on the field.

Where is Mike torico?

It's far too early to know. That's about all you'd get from a press conference at this point. May not really know for sure for a couple of days and until they can rule out anoxic brain injury. If you hear those the words at all, it's not going to be good.

I actually said to my wife that they must be performing CPR when they were showing shots from the end zone soon after. Very sad

 

[TWOK11]

There’s not going to be anything definitive unless he just dies for about 48 hours. That’s when they’ll know if he suffered any brain damage.

 

[Hoofbite]

The Bengals fanbase should be really proud of how they have shown up to support an opposing player.

 

[Cowboys22]

Hopefully this means rumors of him stabilizing are true

I fear the opposite. They would update quickly with good news. Vitals normal but still not breathing on his own doesn’t sound good to me.

 

[revospeed]

I thought his marketing rep tweeted that he was stabilized.
