According to a source, the NFL has reportedly decided to not resume the Bills-Bengals game
The Week 17 Monday Night Football game between the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals was suspended halfway through the first quarter after Bills safety Damar Hamlin suffered cardiac arrest. The 24-year-old was taken to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, where he was placed in intensive care in critical condition.
Following the positive update the NFL family received about Hamlin opening his eyes and regaining his consciousness, the league has reportedly decided on the status of the game.
According to Rob Maaddi of the Associated Press, the NFL won’t resume the Bills-Bengals Week 17 game.
