Cincinnati Bengals receiver Tee Higgins said he's 'in a good place right now' after hearing from Damar Hamlin's mother about his improvement on Thursday.
"Obviously it's been hard, just because you know I had something to do with the play whatnot," Higgins said in his first public comments since Hamlin collapsed and the game was suspended. But"everyone has been making me feel whole again. I talked to his mom and everything is OK, he's doing good, so I'm in a good place right now.""And suddenly she's telling me that he's OK. And just all the positive stuff," the third-year wideout said.
Medical personnel got Hamlin's heart started again with CPR and defibrillation. An ambulance rolled onto the field, and he was rushed to University of Cincinnati Medical Center. Pritts said it appears that Hamlin's"neurological function is intact," thanks to the quick response of the medical personnel who treated him on the field.
Head coach Sean McDermott praised the actions of team assistant trainer Denny Kellington, who rendered aid to Hamlin on the field. "I do want to say one more thing: I haven't reached out to Tee. I hope that he got some relief today. I saw some stuff on Twitter. And people should not be attacking him whatsoever. And I'm glad that Damar's family came out and said that. And hopefully he found some relief today. Because that's a football play. And I hope that he doesn't hold that upon himself because there's nothing else that he could have done in that situation.
