The Bills said on Twitter that Hamlin even joined the Friday morning team meeting by FaceTime, and told his teammates: 'Love you boys.'
His agent told The Associated Press that Hamlin was awake and has been able to grip the hands of family members.Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin is breathing on his own and able to talk after having his breathing tube removed, his agent said Friday - the latest step in his remarkable recovery in the four days since going into cardiac arrest and being resuscitated on the field during a game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
In a statement, the team said Hamlin's "neurologic function remains intact and he has been able to talk to his family and care team." The 24-year-old Hamlin was still listed Thursday in critical condition in the intensive care unit of the University of Cincinnati Medical Center. Aside from being able to communicate by writing, Hamlin was also been able to grip people's hands.
Hamlin's recovery continues to trend in a positive direction after his heart stopped while making what appeared to be a routine tackle in the first quarter of a game against the Bengals on Monday night. The second-year player spent his first two days in the hospital under sedation to allow his body to recover, and on an ventillator to assist his breathing.
