Damar Hamlin releases ‘Did We Win?’ t-shirts to raise money for the University of Cincinnati medical center where he is being treated after his cardiac arrest playing for the Bills on Monday night

Damar Hamlin is already working to raise funds for the medical center in Cincinnati that is treating him after his cardiac arrest playing for the Buffalo Bills on Monday night.

The 24-year-old tweeted a link on Sunday to a range of t-shirts with ‘Did We Win’ emblazoned across them – one of the first things Hamlin apparently said after regaining consciousness in hospital. Each shirt costs $33.

Hamlin wrote on social media: ‘We all won. I want to give back an ounce of the love y’all showed me. 

‘Proceeds of this shirt will go to first-responders and the UC Trauma Center. Go get yours!’

It comes as his Bills team defeated the New England Patriots 35-23 on Sunday. 

Before the game, Hamlin had shared a picture from his hospital bed and had also tweeted ahead his team playing: ‘GameDay.. Nothing I Want More Than To Be Running Out That Tunnel With My Brothers. 

‘God Using Me In A Different Way Today. Tell Someone You Love Them Today! let’s go @BuffaloBills.’ 

The NFL has rallied around Hamlin after he needed to be resuscitated following a tackle during the first quarter of that game, with fans contributing over $8.5 million to his Chasing M’s Foundation as of Sunday night.

Hamlin has since made what doctors call a remarkable recovery, and he’s trying to re-channel the energy of his supporters to help the medical teams that saved his life. 

As of Saturday, he was still listed in critical condition at the UC Medical Center. 

His neurological function has been deemed excellent, and he is breathing fully on his own while also able to speak.
