Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin has come a long way on the field since suffering a cardiac arrest on January 2, 2023. Hamlin returned to the field last season, was named the starter this year and recorded the first interception of his career on Monday.

The Bills safety intercepted a bad pass from Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence in the second quarter of Buffalo's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 3 on Monday night.

Hamlin rightly celebrated his interception. He has played in 37 regular season games in his career and has never had an interception on the scoresheet.

Hamlin had 109 tackles, four passes defensed and one forced fumble in his four-year NFL career before Monday's Week 3 game against the Jaguars.

The cardiac arrest that Hamlin suffered attracted national attention and united the sports world.
