US National Football League star Damar Hamlin woke up after collapsing during a game and asked doctors treating him in hospital if his team won the game.
The Buffalo Bills star suffered a cardiac arrest on the field during Monday night's game in Ohio, causing an outpouring of grief from football fans.
Doctors and his team say he has shown "remarkable improvement" in the past 24 hours and is "neurologically intact".
Hamlin has been in the intensive care unit since he was taken off the field.
He has been communicating with doctors by writing after waking up.
One of Hamlin's physicians, Dr Timothy Pritts, said he had asked who won the game between the Bills and the Cincinnati Bengals.
...
Hamlin is still on a ventilator in the intensive care unit at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center to help his breathing.
...
His agent, Ron Butler, confirmed to CNN that Hamlin was awake and had been holding hands with his family in the hospital.
Hamlin, 24, suffered a cardiac arrest during the primetime game after tackling Cincinnati Bengals receiver Tee Higgins.

Such great news. People were saying he would never wake up again. I hope he can play again.
So much for all those amateur diagnosticians here on FR confidently announcing the surety of his death.
Common, somebody show that this guy didn’t take the COVID vaccine.
I gotta believe he did. The Delusional Lying Media would never tell you but somebody’s gotta know.
Anybody?
And when he found out everyone cried and quit and went home like little pansies he went back to sleep 😴
“I gotta believe he did.”
Wouldn’t he be dead by now?
Every time I see that name I think of Mercedes Benz...
Not only confidently, but INSTANTLY!
I read on here Tuesday that “they” were delaying the death announcement a couple days to “get the story straight”. If the guy is actually alive, it kind of blows that theory up.
Seems like a bad attitude on your part.
FReepers - frequently wrong never in doubt.
The hospital TVs don't have C-Span?
Wow. You’re a despicable vile human.
Maybe. Maybe he got a reprieve. The pattern fits. Young. Heathy. Collapses for apparently no reason. The media is absolutely silent.
Plus he's black and blacks have a tendency to acquiesce to the government no matter how rouge it is.
Fits the pattern. Hope someone brings it forward if it's true.
Back at ya.
You meant “sues the NFL?”
But like our elected officials they never acknowledge the error of their ways
If he is still unable to breathe on his own it might be a bit premature to say he is “neurologically intact.” But we can hope.
People should be talking about the truth about this and doing what Trump does - keep bringing it up.
