One Twitter user wants Hamlin to say something before the Bengals game this Sunday.
Fabulous news and likely a great motivator for all the teams. I really hope he says something big pre-game to thank and ackowledge all, his team, trainers, the Cincinnati Bengals team, fans and broadcasters. #BillsMafia #onehumanity #justcare #loveoutloud

Meanwhile, one Chiefs fan revealed a similar sort of incident while wishing Hamlin a speedy recovery.
As a Chiefs fan, it does my heart good to see him recover. Witnessed same thing to a St Louis Blues player, he collapsed when he stepped off ice. Such a scary sight. Best wishes to your player, team and your staff.

It is worth noting that Hamlin has been visiting his teammates in the Bills’ center, which made a positive influence on the players as well. While speaking about it, quarterback Josh Allen said, “With guys being able to see a little bit of Damar and I know coach said he’s been in the building, guys being able to see him and talk with him. I think that kind of alleviates most of that.”
