Josh Allen served a potent reminder of Damar Hamlin’s strength during his press conference — and as if Allen’s class wasn’t at an impeccable level during the emotional time, he ended on an even higher note – and it didn’t involve speaking about the Bills
To ask a team that has endured immense emotional trauma to take the field again in such little time is a daunting request. But Allen and Co. said the Bills are ready.Bills head coach Sean McDermott echoed the sentiment: “I do as well.”
“His message was the team needs to get back to the goals it set for itself,” McDermott paraphrased Mario’s words. “Damar would’ve wanted it that way.”Allen noted that he spoke with Mario on Monday night after the incident. Mario offered seven soothing words that lifted Allen and Co.’s spirits: “My son is going to be alright.”
“We're chomping at the bit to get down there and go see him,” Allen said. “...We just wanna love up on him... if we get to see him anytime soon it's going to be awesome.” “A lot of 3 jerseys, a lot of 3 signs,” Allen said, “I’m sure it’ll be surreal to be at home, last week of the season.”
