Buffalo Bills pledge seven-figure sum to cardiac charity after Damar Hamlin impact

The American Heart Association will work alongside the Buffalo Bills for the next five years, after the NFL side made a £1million commitment to the charity.

The sporting world came to a standstill earlier this year as Bills safety Damar Hamlin suffered a cardiac arrest during their Week 17 clash against Cincinnati Bengals. The game was subsequently abandoned, but thankfully Hamlin has been on the road to recovery ever since.

Hamlin is still working towards his return to the NFL and has remarkably joined his Bills teammates for voluntary OTAs having been cleared by three different specialists. Hamlin has been doing his best to raise awareness for cardiac arrests in young people since his frightening incident and the Bills are now doing their bit, with training sessions being held at Highmark Stadium that include Hands-Only CPR training and family friendly activities.
