Earlier today, Halmin issued his first tweet since the incident:
Putting love into the world comes back 3xs as much… thankful for everyone who has reached out and prayed. This will make me stronger on the road to recovery, keep praying for me! 🫶🏾3️⃣

“Putting love into the world comes back 3xs as much… thankful for everyone who has reached out and prayed,” he wrote. “This will make me stronger on the road to recovery, keep praying for me!”
On Friday, the miraculous news came that Hamlin’s breathing tube had been removed and he was talking to his teammates on FaceTime.
“This is amazing: For the first time, #Bills S Damar Hamlin is addressing the team via Facetime,” Ian Rapoport reported. “The breathing tube is out, and he’s spent the morning speaking to various teammates on Facetime. Now, he’s delivering a message to the entire group, I’m told.”
Millions have prayed for Hamlin’s recovery and have donated over $6 million to his charity toy drive, Kyle Becker reported earlier here on TrendingPoliticsNews.
Buffalo Bills cornerback Kaiir Elam provided updates on safety Damar Hamlin Thursday morning. Elam tweeted the second-year pro is “awake and showing more signs of improvement.”
Our boy is doing better, awake and showing more signs of improvement. Thank you God. Keep the prayers coming please. All love 3!

“Our boy is doing better, awake and showing more signs of improvement,” Elam posted to Twitter. “Thank you God. Keep the prayers coming please. All love 3!”
The Buffalo Bills also added an update on the player’s health: Hamlin has shown “remarkable improvement” and is “neurologically intact.”
