Now Playing: Madden NFL 23 Video Review
Hamlin suffered cardiac arrest in the first quarter of Monday Night Football on January 2. After tackling a Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver, Hamlin fell backward after standing up. Medical professionals rushed on the field to perform CPR as well as use an automated external defibrillator. He was down on the field for roughly 30 minutes before an ambulance was finally able to take him to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center.
The quick action by medical professionals has led to Hamlin already leaving the Cincinnati hospital to return to a Buffalo center to continue his recovery. He’s neurologically intact and communicating with family, friends, and teammates.
People showed their support and love for Hamlin after the scary incident by donating to his GoFundMe toy drive, which has raised over $8.7 million.
