One of the biggest leagues on the planet is the NFL. a competitive sport that pays generously for players but also places high demands on them. Simply put, the money isn’t that simple to make.
We hope that doesn’t happen after what happened a few hours ago on MNF since sometimes the hits football players take on the field have lasting effects.
The Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals, both Super Bowl candidates this year, squared up. The Bengals finished second in last year’s Super Bowl. Fans were anticipating an exciting game, but something happened midway through that completely surprised every football lover.
Early in the game, Damar Hamlin, a rookie safety for the Bills, tackled a Bengals wide receiver before standing up fast. Up until Hamlin abruptly fell and was unable to stand up, nothing seemed unusual.

A stretcher was quickly brought in after trainers immediately ran outside to investigate what had transpired. Soon after, he was transported in an ambulance to the University of Cincinnati medical facility.
“Team, independent medical personnel, and neighborhood paramedics provided Hamlin with emergency medical care on the scene. He was subsequently taken to a nearby hospital, where he is currently listed in serious condition, according to a statement released recently by the NFL.
We are thinking of Damar and the Buffalo Bills. As additional information becomes available, we will update this page. The NFL Players Association, which supports postponing the game, has been in continual contact with the NFL, according to the statement.

The league made the appropriate decision to postpone the game because the players were clearly upset. The NFLPA released a statement saying, “The NFLPA and everyone in our community is praying for Damar Hamlin.” “We have communicated with players for the Bengals and Bills as well as the NFL. The well-being of Damar is the only thing that matters right now.
