Damar Hamlin Family Representative Jordon Rooney: 'Taking It Minute By Minute'
CINCINNATI — Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin is sedated and in critical condition at a local hospital. We do not have an official update on his status from the hospital or team—but Hamlin's marketing representative and family spokesperson Jordon Rooney did appear with comments on Good Morning America.
“I can’t speak specifically on his medical condition,” Jordon Rooney said on the show. “I will say that he’s fighting, he’s a fighter. . . . The family is in good spirits. We’re honestly just taking it minute by minute, hour by hour.”
UPDATE: The Hamlin family released this statement.
The safety tackled Bengals' wide receiver Tee Higgins in the first quarter of Monday night's game and then immediately collapsed after getting up from the play. Paramedics administered CPR and an AED on the field for nearly 10 minutes before transporting him to University of Cincinnati Medical Center.
Fans immediately found a GoFundMe toy drive fundraiser that Hamlin started in 2020. The original goal was $2,500. As of this writing—the total had surpassed $3.8 million in donations. Click here to support.
The Bills returned to Buffalo on Monday night and the game status is still up in the air.
