Days after Damar Hamlin was hospitalized with cardiac arrest, the Buffalo Bills returned to the field against the New England Patriots on Sunday.
They did it with a bang. Nyheim Hines fielded the game’s opening kickoff at the 4-yard line, cut right past the Patriots coverage team then sprinted untouched down the sideline for a touchdown. The kickoff return was just the fifth of the season. It sent the Bills home crowd into a frenzy.
Hamlin, who has shown significant signs of recovery, was watching and tweeting from the hospital.
