Damar Hamlin's health scare occurred just one week before the national championship game, so Kirby Smart felt it was important to educate his Bulldogs on what happened.

Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin warms up prior to a game against the Cincinnati Bengals Jan. 2, 2023, at Paycor Stadium in Cincinnati."Thank goodness we have Ron Courson, who’s an almost 30-year athletic trainer. He was an athletic trainer for me, and he immediately reached out to me.
Medical experts have weighed in on the injury, saying Hamlin likely was a victim of commotio cordis, an arrhythmia brought on by a precisely-timed blow to the chest.
