A highly anticipated Monday night NFL game is yet to be completed after Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin collapsed on the field after making a tackle against the Cincinnati Bengals. The Bills say he went into cardiac arrest, and CPR restored his heartbeat before he was taken to a Cincinnati hospital about 20 minutes later. Hamlin remains sedated and in critical condition at last report. The game was suspended, and so far there is no word on whether or when it will resume.
The coming final weekend of the NFL regular season will feature games with nothing more than draft position on the line for the Chicago Bears and Indianapolis Colts, with both teams eliminated from playoff contention.
