Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin was released from an Ohio hospital Monday, saying he’s “grateful” for the care he received since collapsing and nearly dying last week during a game against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Hamlin was transferred to a hospital in Buffalo, New York, to continue his recovery, one week after the medical incident unfolded on “Monday Night Football” before millions of television viewers.

“I traveled with him to the airport this morning with our UC Health air care and mobile care crew, including teammates who were with us on the field when Damar Hamlin collapsed,” said Dr. William Knight IV, a professor of emergency medicine at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine.

Knight added that Hamlin “still has a little bit of a ways to go in terms of his ongoing recovery.”
