Commotio cordis is the leading cause of death in youth athletes across all sports. He wants to change that.
Who is he? Damar Hamlin is a 25-year-old NFL safety for the Buffalo Bills, and made headlines earlier this year for collapsing on the field during a game against the Cincinnati Bengals on Jan. 2nd.
- Hamlin fell to the ground after colliding with an opposing player during that game, and didn't get back up. He was promptly resuscitated on the field and rushed to the hospital.
