The NFL fraternity is doing all it can for Damar Hamlin in this difficult hour. The Buffalo Bills had started a special cause a while back and players and fans have taken it upon themselves to fulfill it. And billionaire Robert Kraft did his part too. The Patriots owner sent a subtle message via his donation to the cause.

Hamlin remains in critical condition in the Intensive Care Unit of the University of Cincinnati Medical Center.

A subtle message by Robert Kraft

Robert Kraft sent his donation to Damar Hamlin’s toy drive. And his donation carried a subtle message for the NFL safety, who is currently battling for his life. The Patriots owner sent $18,003 to the donation drive that has already got more than $5.5 million from the NFL world since the horrific incident.

The amount of donation, though not much for the billionaire, holds a special meaning. 18 denotes life in the Jewish faith while 003 denotes Hamlin’s jersey number 3. 

Many other significant members of the NFL community have donated to the drive that Hamlin started during the pandemic. The Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford donated $12,000 to the cause. Russell Wilson, his wife Ciara and Tom Brady donated $10,000 each to the drive, according to Pro Football Talk.

Hamlin’s family issued a statement to all the fans thanking them for their generosity. The safety created the GoFundMe page for the drive in December 2020, just after ending his collegiate career. The drive was meant for Kelly and Nina’s Daycare Centre, a facility co-owned by his mother, in his hometown of McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania. And the community continues to show their love for the cause.

The Bills issued a Damar Hamlin update 

While the NFL world showers their love on Damar Hamlin’s special cause, the Bills issued an encouraging update on the safety’s health. The franchise said that Hamlin is showing signs of improvement although he will stay in the ICU for now. Although it is not much, the fans will be much relieved to hear a bit of positive news on the matter.

The safety suffered a cardiac arrest while playing against the Cincinnati Bengals at the Paycor Stadium on Monday. As he continues to battle for his life in Cincinnati, the NFL community continues to send their prayers and wishes. Hopefully, he makes a full recovery and comes back to find that his special cause has turned into a mission for his fans.
