It did. But honestly, it looked like any other tackle 

Its the flukiest of fluke injuries. Like 12 cases a year. If it were a head injury, it would have been lights out. But him making the play, the popping up, then collapsing is classic behavior for it.

I've seen it. One of my high school teammates was paralyzed and nearly died. Still makes me tear up today.

Wow. I couldn't imagine. That must have been an awful experience. Sorry to hear that. I teared up watching this game and the players' reactions. I couldn't imagine the person being someone you know and care about.

Why cant people be both concerned for Hamlin while applying logic to a situation without being painted as insensitive ?

NFL made the right call, its temporarily delayed. This game is gonna be played out on later date once we know updates on Damar.

 

Correction:

NFL had its arm twisted by Zac Taylor and Sean McDermott into making the right call

Even if he was resuscitated, Damar Hamlin died on an NFL field tonight. Making people process this live, on TV, hearing Lisa Salters try not to break down and cry after even more people were doing just that, purely because they need the ratings, is disgusting and I am genuinely kind of appalled by it.

I don't man. I mean I kinda get what you're saying. But what do you want them to do. Just not report on it and move on to other sporting events like nothing happened, college bowl games. Everyone is starving for new information. They are reporters.

This is unprecedented circumstances. There aren't going to be easy resolutions or actions or reactions. But lots of mis-steps. No one is perfect.

This is my gripe. The NFL didn’t call anything. The teams did. It can’t go unnoticed
