(WWJ) – Millions of Americans tuned in to watch a high-stakes NFL game on Monday Night Football, but instead, real life showed up as Bills safety Damar Hamlin collapsed on the field after making a tackle in the first quarter, requiring life-saving measures from first-responders.
While Hamlin remains hospitalized in critical condition Tuesday, there has been no official word on what caused the 24-year-old to collapse. Some experts, though, believe Hamlin experienced commotio cordis, a very rare disruption of the heart rhythm due to a blow to the chest.
On a new Daily J podcast, WWJ’s Zach Clark digs into the frightening moments and learns just how rare the condition is.
