Anyone have a link to the Bill's forum?

Don't put that out there unless it's already confirmed. I don't care how much you trust your source.

He was intubated. Basically, he had mechanical assistance to breathe. He wasn't able to breath on his own.

If they needed CPR and an AED to restart his heart, I’d say he had died for a brief period of time.

Lots of speculation this is what happened

Commotio cordis is a phenomenon in which a sudden blunt impact to the chest causes sudden death in the absence of cardiac damage. This condition was first described in the middle of the 18th century in the context of chest trauma among workers. 1. Through most of the 20th century, it was only sporadically reported.

Of course it’s that rat of a journalist commenting on a private moment.

How does she still have a job she’s terrible

People on ESPN Facebook are posting in to give both teams a Tie, and saying the game doesn't matter now.  

Now I saw Chuck Hughes of the Detroit Lions die against Bears in 1971. They covered his head and went on with the game. I saw Umpire McSherry die before Reds Opening Day in 1996 and game was rescheduled. 

The NFL has played on Tuesday.  Reschedule for tomorrow night.  Pick up at 7 to 3. 

Well, if they cancel the game and never play it, OK.   I hope it gets rescheduled, but I don't know when they could do that except tomorrow night.  Both teams have games Sunday, unless those get moved back also, but then that effects play-offs the next week.

This is what a doctor friend told me. He was pretty positive. He also said he's likely not going to make it. Hope that's not the case. Really sad if true though. His mom was in the stadium.

There are a lot of possibilities. I mentioned the most common cause of sudden death in athletes.

This is terribly, awfully, ugly and ignorant. You should be ashamed. He possibly did die - why do you think they had to administer CPR and defib on the field? He was resuscitated and is currently intubated, to the best of our knowledge. He can't breathe on his own. 

How embarrassing.

Literally WTF are you on about? Many of us were thinking about how Tee was doing emotionally during all this. I’m glad to see him there with his mom.

This is not the time to for such nonsense.

No journalists report the news.

They don’t take a picture with their phone on a private moment of a guy being consoled by his mum after undoubtedly a life hanging experience.

She has no right to be doing that shit especially when by all accounts the press were being moved away from the locker rooms.

They don’t report news…they report opinion and emotion unfortunately. Journalism doesn’t exist

What the **** has it got to do with any of us what him and his mum are doing?

Do you want to livestream the poor kid in the ambulance with his mum too?
