Bills-Bengals game won’t resume this week, the NFL says. The announcement from the league Tuesday afternoon came as Buffalo released a statement saying Damar Hamlin still is in critical condition after suffering a cardiac arrest during Monday’s game.
A temporary suspension of play was announced after coaches Sean McDermott of the Bills and Zac Taylor of the Bengals spoke with on-field officials. ESPN initially reported the game would resume after a short break, whereby the players would be given five minutes to warm up. But Troy Vincent, the NFL’s executive vice president of football operations, said later he was “not sure where that came from.
Dawn Aponte, an NFL executive, was in the tunnel outside the teams’ locker rooms as players and coaches waited for the postponement decision. Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs went to the hospital to check on Hamlin’s condition after the game was postponed.
