NFL chief medical officer Allen Sills says commotio cordis is a possible explanation for Damar Hamlin’s cardiac arrest but further investigation is required before they make a conclusion.
NFL EVP Troy Vincent overcome with emotion right now. “There was only one policy that mattered (Monday) evening. And that was the emergency action plan by the first responders. … That emergency action plan was executed to perfection.”
More from Troy Vincent, through tears: “That evening was outstanding. You gave our brother Damar another day to live, a chance to fight.”
Troy Vincent says they’ve not had a discussion about postponing the #Bills-#Patriots game this weekend. Says he’s spoken to Sean McDermott but only to see how he and the players are doing. Did say earlier in the call it continues to be “tough” for McDermott.
To be clear, Troy Vincent did not rule out the possibility of postponing the game. Just says that conversation has not come up yet. If they feel they have to do that for the players’ and coaches’ well being, they’ll then address it.
