Damar Hamlin Returns to Football After Cardiac Arrest

Damar Hamlin, the Buffalo Bills safety, has expressed a newfound sense of freedom and clarity as he reflects on his return to football nearly a year after suffering cardiac arrest during a game on January 2, 2023. Hamlin, who required resuscitation on the field and spent two days in a medically induced coma, shared that his mind, spirit, and soul are now free from the trauma of that experience. Diagnosed with commotio cordis, he was reassured by specialists about the low chances of recurrence, allowing him to regain confidence through gradual steps in his comeback. He emphasized the importance of time in healing, stating, 'Time heals all...growth from cardiac arrest.' Now focused on competing for a roster spot, Hamlin is looking ahead rather than dwelling on the past.
