Before boarding Air Force One and returning to the White House from northern Kentucky on Jan. 4, President Joe Biden told reporters he spoke “at length” with the parents of Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin.

During ESPN’s broadcast of Monday Night Football, Hamlin tackled Cincinnati Bengals receiver Tee Higgins after Higgins caught a pass from quarterback Joe Burrow.
