Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin has shown signs of improvement but still remains hospitalized in critical condition, according to Hamlin's marketing representative and family spokesperson Jordon Rooney.

Sources close to Hamlin have said the player is improving after suffering cardiac arrest during a game against the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday night.

Rooney gave the update on the NFL player's condition to ESPN on Wednesday and noted Hamlin remains sedated. His update comes after Rob Butler, Hamlin's agent, told ESPN on Tuesday night that Hamlin's oxygen levels had improved.

Hamlin, 24, is in the intensive care unit at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, where he was transported after he went into cardiac arrest on the field during the first quarter of the Bills' Monday night game against the Cincinnati Bengals.

The safety collapsed following his tackle of Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins, and CPR was administered to Hamlin before an ambulance arrived.

He’s dead Jim. Less oxygen level j7st means he still can’t breathe on his own.

Why they had to do it at 4AM I’ll never know. then right after they left, then came the Blood Suckers, one vial from inside my elbow each morning.

I asked why they didn’t use the IV tap and they just said “Oh we can’t use that!”................

Yeah, that video appears to be over. Or I can’t watch it for some reason, though I’m not sure why.

Please continue to inform as to any developments you learn. Thx.

Next big hurdle to get him liberated from ventilator and breathing on own.

Drs very happy so far considering what could have been.
