NFL’s Damar Hamlin reveals how he relieves stress fast — 3 years after his near-death scare
NY Post
Everyone remembers the petrifying moment.
Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin suffered a near-fatal cardiac arrest following a routine tackle in a “Monday Night Football” game against the Cincinnati Bengals in January 2023.
Paycor Stadium fell silent — and viewers at home watched in shock — as Hamlin received emergency CPR and defibrillation on the field to restore his heartbeat.
He made his miraculous regular-season return nine months later — and when he hits the turf later this year, he’ll have a whole new set of tools to strengthen his game.
“I told myself, in 2026, I’m giving myself the love that I give the world first,” Hamlin, 28, told The Post.
“You can’t fill others’ cups until you fill yours — you know, have people that you can talk to, that you can empty your cup into.”
