Damar Hamlin: NFL and MLB legend Bo Jackson sends message to Bill’s safety

“Dear @HamlinIsland, the question you asked, ‘Did we win?’ The answer to that is yes, we won,” the 1990 pro-bowler wrote on his Twitter profile.

“The second you opened your eyes, the nation celebrated and cheered. To answer your question, damn yes we won young man!
