Hall of Fame football coach Tony Dungy recalled the nationwide reaction to Bills safety Damar Hamlin after he suffered cardiac arrest during a game, saying, 'People started praying.'
– a moment that was shared widely on social media and television broadcasts. But Dungy recalled a different reaction to a similar situation when he served as an NFL coach.
The game was temporarily postponed for over an hour before the NFL ruled it a no-contest, even with heavy implications for the playoffs. "That should be encouraging to us, because that’s exactly why we’re here today because every day innocent lives are at stake. The only difference is they don’t belong to a famous athlete, and they’re not seen on national TV. But those lives are still important to God and in God’s eyes."
