Damar first returned to football during the Bills’ preseason game against the Indianapolis Colts on August 12.
Officially cleared to play again back in April, Damar previously opened up about the “life-changing event.”
“They almost lost me. Like I died on national TV, you know what I mean?” he said. “So that right there is the biggest blessing of it all, for me to still have my people, and my people still have me.”
