Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin and his family met with Joe Biden at the White House, and the President was honoured to meet with the inspirational NFL star.
The sporting world was rocked last season as Hamlin collapsed during a match between the Bills and the Cincinnati Bengals, and suffered a cardiac arrest. The game was soon abandoned due to the nature of the incident, and thankfully Hamlin is on the road to recovery after being successful resuscitated.
Along with making strides to one day return to the NFL, Hamlin has been raising awareness and ensuring that more automated external defibrillators are available at necessary sites. Biden has hailed Hamlin for his work, and met with the NFL star this week.
