This is an IHeart podcast.

Hello and welcome from the Chris Wessling podcast studio.

It's around the NFL, our week 18 preview, a week in the NFL, unlike any we can

remember, of course, with DeMarne Hamlin and everything that continues to unfold around the bill's safety.

Dan Hansis here.

Greg Rosenthal, Mark Zessler.

How are we doing, boys?

I think in higher spirits after watching that press conference from the University of Cincinnati.

Absolutely. Dr. Timothy Pritz and Dr. William Knight spoke with the media, gave us updates

on where Hamlin stands, who of course suffered the cardiac arrest during Monday's game

against the Bengals. And we learned on Thursday that he has shown quote remarkable improvement over the past 24

hours and this is huge as well appears to be neurologically intact according to the doctors speaking of

the doctors one of the things we learned mark was that hamelin was responsive opening his eyes and even in writing form asked if the

bills had won the game on Monday night, unaware, obviously, of everything that had transpired

after he went down on the field.

Here is what Dr. Pritz had to say.

To paraphrase, one of our partners, you know, when he asked, did we win?

The answer is yes, you know, Damari, you won.

You've won the game of life.

And that's probably the most important thing out of this.

We really need to keep him at the center of everything else that's going on.

And we really want to ensure a good outcome for him.
