GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — The NFL’s chief medical officer says the league is prepared for any emergency on game day, whether it’s a preseason exhibition or the Super Bowl between Kansas City and Philadelphia on Sunday. Dr. Allen Sills says that was underscored by the way medical personnel were able to help Buffalo safety Damar Hamlin, who collapsed in cardiac arrest during a game against Cincinnati last month. Hamlin was resuscitated and continues his recovery, but he was doing well enough to travel to Phoenix this week to accept a community service award.
