Damar Hamlin

Physicians at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, where the 24-year-old is being treated, said Hamlin's breathing tube was removed overnight and he continues to progress "remarkably."

While the 24-year-old Bills safety remains critically ill, physicians in Cincinnati say he appears to be "neurologically intact."

The Buffalo Bills safety remains in critical condition after a seemingly routine tackle caused his heart to stop beating. The 24-year-old is expected to remain in intensive care, the team said.

It involves the impact of a specific force to the chest at a specific moment in the cardiac cycle. One cardiologist told NPR that what happened to Hamlin was likely "a perfect storm of events."

The world is waiting for updates about Hamlin, who is in critical condition after suffering a cardiac arrest during Monday night's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. This is his second NFL season.

Fans showed their support for the Buffalo Bills safety by pouring more than $4 million into a fundraiser he started for kids in his hometown.
