Damar Hamlin showing "remarkable improvement," Buffalo Bills say
CBSN
Damar Hamlin is "making steady progress" while still hospitalized in critical condition following a cardiac arrest that caused him to collapse on the field during a game in Cincinnati Monday night, the Buffalo Bills said in a statement Thursday morning. Hamlin, who is 24, is a safety in his second season with the team.
"Per the physicians caring for Damar Hamlin at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, Damar has shown remarkable improvement over the past 24 hours," the Bills said. "While still critically ill, he has demonstrated that he appears to be neurologically intact. His lungs continue to heal and he is making steady progress."
The team is "grateful for the love and support" that it is has received since Hamlin's televised collapse and hospital transfer earlier this week ushered in an outpouring of concerned messages online.

Oregon's Durkee Fire – the largest active blaze in the U.S. – has burned more than 268,500 acres of land. And while that amount of lost land poses an aggressive and dangerous threat, there's another threat wildfires like Durkee can present that many aren't aware of: they can create their own weather systems.
