The 24-year-old collapsed after suffering a cardiac arrest following a tackle on Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins, and had to receive intensive CPR on the field for almost 10 minutes. Speaking from outside the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, Hamlin’s uncle spoke of the moment his family realised the severity of the situation, saying: “They brought him back to life, but it’s heartbreaking. To see all those grown men crying and all the emotion. It was a gut punch.”
