Damar Hamlin will be honored by ALL 32 NFL teams, as league reveals pregame moment of support

The NFL announced Friday that every team in the league this weekend will honor Bills safety Damar Hamlin, who is awake and off his breathing tube after suffering a cardiac arrest vs. the Bengals on Monday.

The football community has shown widespread support of Hamlin, with Robert Kraft, Tom Brady and Matthew Stafford among the many to donate to his GoFundMe, and now the NFL has rolled out a list of official options for teams to recognize the 24-year-old.

The activations include a pregame moment of support, painting his No. 3 on each 30-yard line and wearing black T-Shirts displaying ‘Love for Damar 3.’

The league has distributed a standardized public address announcement for the teams to read prior to the national anthem.

It reads, ‘Throughout this week, the entire NFL family has been praying for Damar Hamlin of the Buffalo Bills as he continues his recovery, and we thank the first responders and medical professionals involved in his care.

The [CLUB NAME] ask you to join us in a moment of support and love for Damar, and cheer for him and his family as they continue their fight.’

The league also provided further detail to the field painting tribute, saying that the No. 3 must appear in either ‘Buffalo Bills Red or Buffalo Bills Blue.’ 

And while non-Bills players may choose to wear the black tees honoring Hamlin, Buffalo players will wear a similar shirt in the team’s blue. 

Hats embroidered with a ‘3’ will also provided to team personnel to wear during pregame, while ‘3’ jersey patches will be worn by the Bills in Week 18.

The Bills host the Patriots this Sunday.
