During Monday Night Football, the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals faced off in a much-anticipated matchup. However, the game didn’t last that long as things shifted from fun and excitement to sadness and worry.

The game was not even 30 minutes old when Buffalo Bills’ safety Damar Hamlin came up to make a tackle on Cincinnati Bengals’ wide receiver Tee Higgins. After making the tackle, Hamlin stood up, but almost immediately fell back to the turf unconsciously.

It was later revealed that Hamlin had suffered a cardiac arrest on the field of play and had to be revived. After being rushed to a nearby hospital, Hamlin is currently in critical condition, however, recent indications state that he is improving.
