There was hardly a dry eye in the house when Bills safety Damar Hamlin took the stage at Wednesday’s ESPYs to present the Pat Tillman Award for Service to Buffalo’s training staff.
The Bills training staff conducted CPR on Hamlin on Jan. 2 during the team’s game against the Bengals when he went into cardiac arrest. Hamlin remained in the hospital for over a week before he was released.
Since the traumatic night, he has since been cleared to return to football activities, and he returned to practice in May.
