GOD TV previously reported the tragic event that unfolded on the field during the game between Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals. He collapsed due to cardiac arrest in the middle of the game and was rushed to the hospital. Then a video of his teammates went viral as they gathered together on the field to pray for Damar’s life.

As the world witnessed what happened, prayers poured in for the Buffalo Bills’ safety. Especially when it was revealed that he was in critical condition. Most people, not just his loved ones, team, and friends, joined in prayer, as well as his fans worldwide. It was a historic moment. Furthermore, ESPN analyst Dan Orlovsky made headlines because of his kind gesture to pray for Damar live on national television.
Answered Prayers
Indeed, God answered everyone’s prayers. According to CBN News report, the 24-year-old is now recovering and “doing well.” This was also evident with the recent posts he shared on social media asking for more prayers despite getting past the critical stage.
