In a show of support, NFL players and fans will wear “Love for Damar 3” shirts and jerseys with his number 3 patch. The games will also feature a moment of silence and a special tribute to Hamlin.
The playoff picture is still revealing, with several teams in contention for the top seed and home field advantage. The Kansas City Chiefs are currently leading the conference, but the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals are close behind.
The New England Patriots are in the driver’s seat for the final wild card spot, but the Miami Dolphins and Pittsburgh Steelers are also in the running.
In the NFC, the Philadelphia Eagles are hoping to clinch the NFC East and the top seed in the NFC playoffs. The Green Bay Packers, Detroit Lions, and Seattle Seahawks are battling for the final wild card spot.
