Original story:
Damar Hamlin is planning to be in attendance at Highmark Stadium for the Bills’ playoff matchup with the Miami Dolphins.
Hamlin brought the entire sports world to a halt when he collapsed suddenly due to cardiac arrest during the 1st quarter of a Monday Night Football matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals. Medical staff had to perform CPR and the game would end up being canceled.
Many were expecting the worst, with the situation being completely unexpected and shocking. Luckily, however, Hamlin eventually became stable and was able to leave the hospital earlier this week. Now, Hamlin is planning to be in attendance for the 1st round of the playoffs.
AP source: Bills safety Damar Hamlin plans to attend Buffalo’s wild-card playoff home game against Miami two weeks after going into cardiac arrest during a game.

Hamlin even being alive is a miracle, so it is nothing short of incredible that Hamlin can attend the game in person just 2 weeks after his cardiac arrest.
The Bills and Dolphins are set to kickoff at 1 p.m. ET on Sunday.
