Some comments on YouTube videos showing the tackle are mentioning SADS/covid vaccine. Going forward, we can probably expect conspiracy theories and a lot of "fact-checking" on the internet. It's a sad ordeal, especially since that didn't look like a tackle that could cause such grievous injury.

Former NFL player Uche Nwaneri was found dead froim sudden heart failure a couple days ago. He was 38. Something isn't normal about all these healthy young people just dropping dead.
 
It's also theorized that mRNA vaccines have links to autoimmune diseases. Until that can be unequivocally proven, we just get more "fact checkings."
 
The dumb ESPN commentators trying desperately to fill dead-air.
It's the only time just about ever their job rises to something more difficult than "regurgitate trendy hot takes for attention", I can't hate on Schefter or Booger having a hard time being entertaining over dead air while a man just about died on a football field.
Really it's surprising the NFL hasn't already called the game. Just give ESPN a slot tomorrow or Wednesday and let them comment about literally anything else when this game is finally played.

EDIT: Please don't turn this into another debate thread about the merits of the COVID vaccine, for the love of God. I know at least Uche was un-jabbed, and people's obsession to make literally every health incident of current/former athletes into another tiresome debate about the jab is even more irritating and less sympathetic than the few remaining mask/lockdown enthusiasts.

"Look how amazing this shared concern across team lines and the fans are being so respectful blah blah blah faggot shit".
ESPN really hires the best and brightest among the elite group of Man who knows nothing but football, brain-damaged former player who is only there because he was a famous name and literally can't string a basic english sentence and woman who is a mix of both but only is on because quota.
 
My apologies for derailing things with the vaccine comments. My newfag-ness got the better of me. Thoughts and prayers to Hamlin. I hate to see promising players go down.
At least you're learning, fren.

Hope the dude is okay, but whatever the fuck happened to need CPR is bad. He apparently has a pulse, so that's good, all things considered.
 
That didn't even look like that hard a tackle, was that just one of those freak hits that gets a player right between heartbeats and short-circuits the whole operation? CPR, both teams freaking out on camera, the game delayed for 5 and then suspended on a temporary basis? Something real bad went down with poor Hamlin. Here's hoping the paddles of life and an extended hospital stay can get him right.

I wouldn't want to swap places with anybody working in the NYC office tonight. Goodell's gotta be pacing around the floor with his hair on fire right now.
Looks like a freak thing where Boyd's shoulder nails him right in the heart area.

 
They stopped the ambulance for his mom. He’s dead, they’ll play with injuries, but his aorta might’ve ruptured.

I hope his mom’s okay if he’s dead.
 
Game is officially suspended for the night. No update on Hamlin but I'm thinking it's for the worst when it comes out.

There's commotio cordis but that would be like a one in a billion chance through pads and the fact that he's 24. It usually affects JV athletes. That's when blunt force trauma to the chest stops your heart and you get that AED out on the field immediately to restart it.

I would think NFL physicals would prevent players from playing if a potential risk factor of sudden death showed up like an aortic aneurysm. I know the NBA does this.
 
Very likely not dead. My brother is a medic and training paramedic and he claimed it's probably commotio cordis, a rare form of instant heart attack that comes after a hard hit to the chest. This is usually survivable if aid is rendered immediately (as it was).

Is that not what happened?

I'm sorry, but did Damar Hamlin already die? Oh, that's right. The operation isn't even over yet. In fact, it's only critial condition. Does not having a pulse at halftime count as a death? Is that what you're saying? Because if you're saying that I can assure you that you're wrong. Why would you make this topic when the game is still on? Damar Hamlin is still living right now and he is up to date on his COVID boosters for many years now? He took one of the worst hits in the NFL who just happen to collapse because he was feeling a bit light headed. But you know what? They still fucking fine. Damar Hamlin is one of the best safeties in the NFL, the bills went 12-3 last year and would of won the Super Bowl if the quaterback didn't choke. Maybe you should shut the fuck up before you make retarded topics like this. You know why? Because you're going to be embarrassed when Damar Hamlin lives and someone bumps this topic. Oh look at that, the doctors just stepped out of the operating room. Are you a fucking drunk? Are you retarded? Are you autistic? You are a fucking idiot and you should never make a topic on this board again and I'm fucking serious. I almost have a feeling you're the only guy making all these anti- Damar Hamlin topics because you're a faggot hater who doesn't like the man because he'e good. Fuck you, be good at something in YOUR life and then maybe try to troll these fucking teams on the board, like I give a fuck. It's so easy to spot out your threads now, you're a retard. Always doing stupid shit like this. Why don't you try to be a good poster? Just for once? For once in your fucking life try not to make a topic like this. That's just you, you're always right at getting it wrong. Fuck you. You are nothing.

That is probably what happened, but if the people saying they gave him CPR for 10 minutes are right, he isn't among the living. I refuse to believe there wasn't an AED somewhere on the sidelines.
