cincinnati area hospital. the game was suspended a short time later. 24 year oldham lin is in the middle of his third season with the bills. he s considered one of the game s star safeties. we are praying for him and his family. let s go to my colleague and friend will cain, fox news host. fox and friends weekend will, we re obviously praying for him and his family. we saw what was happening on the field immediately. you saw those players really come together. not just one team but both teams together. will, i m told that his mom rode with him to the level one trauma center? what are your initial thoughts brother? well, lawrence, i think it s probably i think it s responsible of us that i start with this. i think this is as close to verified as we can probably trust at this moment. a man named jordan rooney who says he is in damar hamlin s camp, his marketing rep, works with damar, has given an update on damar from the hospital. it seems very, very legitimate here. he is
you know, they ve made those rules to make that happen. so i m just not sure this one could have been prevented and we just don t know or won t know until all the questions areens aed about this particular injury. lawrence: yeah, michele we just need more information. yeah, we do. lawrence: looking at this hit it doesn t look different. no, it doesn t. lawrence: it looks like a regular hit. michele thanks so much for joining the program. nice to be with you. lawrence: speaking of getting information, we re bringing in our medical consultants dr. marc siegel and dr. janette neshewait. docs i m going to bring you into this conversation because it s important to have this conversation with doctors outside of the league. when you see what s happening with the league today, do you believe this is going to cause more criticism? does there need to be more testing? or are we tested out right now in the league? looks like everyone was, you know, can t you know, were on
