Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin had his breathing tube removed overnight, the team said on Friday, and a call to teammates from the recovering 24-year-old set off a raucous celebration.
Players leaped to their feet, clapped and yelled as Hamlin appeared from his hospital bed on a FaceTime call during the Bills team meeting on Friday, head coach Sean McDermott said in describing the scene.
“The room went nuts. It was awesome,” said Bills General Manager Brandon Beane, who returned to Buffalo on Thursday after saying behind in Cincinnati to be with Hamlin. “The hair on the back of my neck stood up.”
Doctor have said that Hamlin is progressing remarkably well after having to have his heartbeat restored on the field on Monday night.
