BuffaloBillyG Posted August 23, 2023 Posted August 23, 2023 (edited) Not a ton known at this time. Was reported to be working off to the side when he suddenly needed medical attention. Pretty scary for a guy that has had heart issues in the past. Prayers up for Tommy. Edited August 23, 2023 by BuffaloBillyG 4 2 Quote

In this case it might be good that he signed with the Giants with Daboll and Shoen there. We know it would have been ignored on some teams. Miami comes to mind.

That was probably a wakeup call for all teams in sports not just the NFL to be as well prepared as possible. You hope something serious like that never happens again, but they have to be prepared as best as they can. 3 Quote

You would hope, but then you and I are Buffalo fans so I'm guessing you are from Buffalo area. As such unless you prove otherwise you are automatically assumed by any Bills Mafia to have utmost respect for players health and well bring outside of his athletic contributions to the teams success. Miami certainly shows a disregard for player health with the heat issues on visiting sidelines. And keeping Tua in game after obvious concussion. Hamlin incident did bring safety to the forefront, it's hard to judge how long before other news distracts from importance ofsafety. . Edited August 23, 2023 by AuntieEm Quote

Either case I'm glad it's daboll as coach as he's a players coach in that regard. 1 Quote
