According to his agent, Hamlin is awake and holding his family's hand. The Bills safety has been fighting for his life since he suffered a cardiac arrest on the field.
His condition has been closely monitored and fans have come out in droves to lend their support. This is good news for his teammates, his family, and all of the people who have been affected by the frightening incident.
The magnitude of Hamlin's injury makes it seem like it takes life-threatening injuries for the NFL to actually cover player safety issues, and Hamlin still being the lead story on the league's landing page is a testament to the enormity of this injury.
There have been discussions in the Cincinnati locker room about not everyone being ready to play. It is easy to imagine what the players are thinking. They practiced today in preparation for New England. The update on Hamlin will hopefully make this week easier.
There is no update on when the Bills-Bengals game will be finished or how the league will figure out seeding if it isn't.
