Damar Hamlin’s breathing tube has been removed in the latest sign of improvement from the Buffalo Bills safety after he was resuscitated on the field in Cincinnati on Monday night.
Hamlin started communicating to doctors in writing on Wednesday, but had been prevented from speaking due to his breathing tube. With that removed, the 24-year-old has begun talking with teammates from the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, reports The Athletic’s Shams Charania.
