Image
Ein Football-Profi der Buffalo Bills musste am Sonntagabend (Ortszeit) mit dem Krankenwagen vom Platz gefahren worden. Die gesamte NFL hielt für kurze Zeit die Luft an. Der 26 Jahre alte Damien Harris war Minuten vor der Pause nach einem Zusammenstoß mit einem Gegenspieler von den New York Giants auf dem Feld liegen geblieben. Der übertragende TV-Sender NBC berichtete unter Berufung auf die Bills, Harris habe eine Verletzung am Nacken erlitten. Er könne Arme und Beine bewegen. „Er ist auf dem Weg ins Krankenhaus, das ist alles, was ich weiß“, sagte Bills-Cheftrainer Sean McDermott vor Beginn der zweiten Halbzeit. Ein Herzstillstand wie bei Damar Hamlin im Januar war es nicht, dennoch wurden im Stadion Erinnerungen wach, als sich relativ schnell zahlreiche Bills-Betreuer um den Runningback kümmerten.

Image
 CJ McCollum, the guard for the New Orleans Pelicans and former teammate of All-Star Damian Lillard for nine seasons in Portland, shared his thoughts on Lillard's recent move to the Milwaukee Bucks in a recent interview with Aaron Fentress of The Oregonian. McCollum, having a deep understanding of Lillard's game and character, offered insights into why Milwaukee might be a better fit for his friend than Miami, the destination Lillard initially preferred.
