"Love you boys," Hamlin said to his teammates.
Quarterback Josh Allen – Hamlin’s teammate – shared an emotional thanks on Thursday to Buffalo’s trainers for saving Hamlin’s life.
"I want to thank — I know coach mentioned it earlier — our training staff for going out there, not knowing what’s going on but going through a checklist … saving his life," an emotional Allen told reporters.
"Being on that field, you lose sleep. You hurt for your brother. A lot of shared grief."
Allen told reporters that while the team is not sure when they’ll be able to speak to Damar, they’re "chomping at the bit" to see him.
"Tell him how much we love him as a team," Allen said when asked what he’ll say to Hamlin when he first is able to speak with Hamlin. "He’s a kid that walks around the facility that you never see in a bad mood. He’s always upbeat. He just wants to be out there and play football. We’re looking forward to that."
The Bills play the New England Patriots on Sunday.
