The Buffalo Bills have officially re-signed safety Damar Hamlin, according to a report from Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The move ensures the veteran defensive back remains with the organization that selected him in the 2021 NFL Draft.
Hamlin has spent his entire professional career in Buffalo, appearing in 34 games over the last three seasons. He has become a global symbol of resilience following his remarkable recovery and return to the field after suffering a cardiac arrest during a game in January 2023. During the 2023 season, Hamlin appeared in five games, primarily contributing on special teams as he made his inspirational comeback to active competition.
A former sixth-round pick out of the University of Pittsburgh, Hamlin has recorded 95 career tackles and 1.5 sacks. His presence provides the Bills with valuable depth and continuity in a secondary that has undergone several personnel shifts during the current offseason. Specific financial terms and the length of the new contract have not yet been disclosed by the team.
