CINCINNATI — An awful scene struck Paycor Stadium on Monday Night Football when Damar Hamlin suffered a scary injury following a hit on Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins. 

Hamlin hit Higgins across the middle and immediately fell to the ground after getting up following the play.

He then stayed down for 19 minutes as paramedics brought an ambulance onto the field to expedite care. They gave the safety CPR and eventually transported him to a local hospital.

UPDATE: FOX19's Joe Danneman reports Hamlin has a pulse but is not breathing and is being transported to University of Cincinnati Medical Center. He required CPR and an AED on the field.

The entire Bills team gathered around Hamlin as both sidelines reacted to the devastating scene near midfield.
