The Buffalo Bills, their fans, their players, and — obviously — Damar Hamlin went through a massive scare last season.
The Pittsburgh native collapsed on the field early in their crucial matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals, and he — literally — fought for his life for a while.
It’s been some time since that scary incident went down, but some doubted whether Hamlin was going to be able to play professional football ever again.
Fast forward to today, and the star safety is back on the practice field, and he had a heartwarming welcome to practice when he took the field for training camp in front of countless media members and reporters.

The whole NFL community rallied around Hamlin during that difficult time.
People donated to his charities and foundation, and even some of his toughest rivals took to social media to wish him well and a speedy recovery.
Football was obviously the last thing on anyone’s mind when it came to Hamlin, with his well-being being first and foremost.
Even so, it’s so nice to see that a young player and a budding star in this league like him is back again doing what he loves and what he does best.
And the best part is that he’s out of danger and medically cleared to go on with his career without any risk, which was obviously the No. 1 concern when it came to him ever setting foot on the gridiron again.
This is bigger than football, and a piece of news that should get a smile out of everyone’s face.
