Damar Hamlin is a safety for the Buffalo Bills that jumped into world notoriety for unfortunately going into cardiac arrest after making a tackle against the Cincinnati Bengals in the first Monday Night Football of this year, needing for first responders to administer resucitation maneuvers for around 10 minutes before his pulse was back and he could be transported in an ambulance.
Now Damar Hamlin has announced he's making a comeback after suffering what doctors diagnosed as commotio cordis, which the American Heart Association says it's a rare cardiac arrest immediately following a blow to the chest at a specific time of the person's heart beat.
Hamlin talked about how important his family's support was during his injury and the months following, as he fueled on them during his recovery and will continue to do so moving forward.
"They almost lost me. I died on national TV in front of the whole world. You know what I mean? That right there is just the biggest blessing of it all. For me to still have my people and for my people to still have me."
Damar Hamlin's net worth
Damar Hamlin has an estimated net worth of around $2 million dollars thanks to his rookie contract with the Buffalo Bills, which will pay him a bit less than a million dollars for the upcoming season, having a total value of $3.65 million over four seasons, with 2023 being his third in the NFL.
Hamlin's GoFundMe saw fans donat over $9 million dollars towards his toy drive in the days, weeks and months following his horrific injury.
