There have not been many updates on the condition of Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin over the past few days after his horrifying incident on Monday night aside from a series of vague but hopeful updates from his friend and business partner. But on Thursday, the Buffalo Bills shared a very promising update on Hamlin’s status that got the NFL world excited.
In a statement, the Bills revealed that Damar Hamlin had shown “remarkable improvement over the past 24 hours” and appears to be “neurologically intact” after the harrowing incident.

Not that we're owed anything here, but it's great to have doctors relay that it's improvement instead of getting 898 different tweets about whether something they heard is a good sign or not. This is an encouraging update https://t.co/1TrYmbdtiA

While it’s clear Hamlin still has a lot of progress to make, that update was certainly a reason to celebrate.
