The Buffalo Bills hosted the New England Patriots on Sunday in their first game since safety Damar Hamlin suffered a cardiac arrest and collapsed on the field during Monday night's game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
The big picture: As Hamlin continues to recover, he tweeted during Sunday's game while his teammates, the NFL and fans showed their support in a number of ways.
The Buffalo Bills host the New England Patriots on Sunday, six days after Damar Hamlin's terrifying on-field collapse shook the NFL — and America — to its core.
Why it matters: This will be one of the most emotional games in NFL history. And with Hamlin showing significant improvement, it will be a "celebration of life," says Bills general manager Brandon Beane.
Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin's made his first public comments Saturday after suffering a cardiac arrest during the team's game against the Cincinnati Bengals earlier this week.
The latest: "When you put real love out into the world it comes back to you 3x's as much," Hamlin said in an Instagram post. "The Love has been overwhelming, but I'm thankful for every single person that prayed for me and reached out."
