The city of Cincinnati has temporarily put aside the orange and black for Buffalo Bills red and blue in a show of support for Damar Hamlin.
While Cincinnati Bengals players were on a typical Tuesday break before prepping for Week 18, the city itself used sunset to reveal a barrage of Bills colors at various major venues.
Paycor Stadium, TQL Stadium and other major Queen City landmarks all took part in the tonal shift as Hamlin remains in critical condition at UC Health Medical Center.
For now, the NFL has confirmed the Bills-Bengals game won’t be played this week and the Bengals will soon turn their attention to the Ravens. In the interim, here’s a look at some of the major landmarks giving off a show of support.

Left University of Cincinnati Medical Center a few moments ago. Very classy gesture from the @Bengals, who’ve lit Paycor Stadium in the @BuffaloBills’ blue and white for Damar Hamlin. pic.twitter.com/ahrXulODlI
