Looking forward to the interview with D. Hamlin, if it happens.
That might take a while.

NFL star Damar Hamlin has been released from the hospital and is headed back to Buffalo, N.Y., reports Fox 19 Now. There, he will continue his recovery after being hospitalized due to a near-fatal injury on the field. On Monday (Jan. 9), the 24-year-old safety was discharged from the University of Cincinnati Medical Center and is on his way to New York, according to staff member Dr. William Knight IV.
Upon arriving on the East Coast, Hamlin will be
admitted to a local hospital and will be under “very capable and excellent” care. Though he will continue to undergo a series of tests as he regains his physical strength and works with specialists, he is said to be recovering well.
Dr. Timothy Pritts, division chief of general surgery, called it a “very normal-to-accelerated” trajectory for his recovery, reiterating that Hamlin is “neurologically completely intact” with “no reason to believe” this recovery path won’t continue.
Still, when asked how close Hamlin is to returning to a normal life, Pritts said “it’s too premature to speculate.”
“He still has a little bit of a ways to go in terms of his ongoing recovery,” Knight said. “We’re thrilled to see where he is today. He’s up. He’s walking around. He’s got an amazing, genuine sense of humor, and his family is amazing and we’re happy he’s with them.”
Dr. Tim Pritts says a normal recovery from an event like Hamlin's will be
measured in "weeks to months," though they note he's been ahead of pace so far.

Hanging out with the team everyday.
Prancing around the stadium, yet still hospitalized requiring oxygen???
They really should have stopped after they told us he was transferred to a Buffalo hospital.
Shame on the NFL and their Big Pharma hospital administrators!
