The NFL world is still in a state of shock over the status of Bills safety Damar Hamlin. In the first quarter of Monday night’s game between the Bengals and Bills Hamlin took a blow to the chest while making a tackle. He stood up, but then collapsed a second later. We now know that Hamlin suffered cardiac arrest and his heartbeat had to be restored on the field. Good news: Hamlin is doing better. While he’s still intubated, the latest reporting indicates his breathing is improving.
Here’s how Seahawks players reacted in the moment and in the days since.
