Possible cause:

Commotio cordis.

As a medical professional this is exactly what I told my kids.  Cpr for púlselessness until they got the aed and shocked him back into rhythm.  If the ambulance waited for his mom before it went to the hospital they must have gotten a pulse back.  No way they would have called it in that short of time and no way they wait while doing cpr

Bills managers are bagging up the equipment and Bills players are coming out of the locker room without their pads so I'd say it's over for tonight as it should be. I would guess tomorrow night.

That was my wife's diagnosis "from the couch".

Reminds me of John McSherry's death at the Reds game so many years ago. I hope the game if/when the game is called, that the fans in attendance show some class.

Suzy, Adam and Booger are doing ok.   There is only one thing to talk about, and none of the three want too.   ESPN should have gone to alternate programming until more information is known.

She (a neurologist) said if the arrest had been something neurological resulting from head-jarring on the hit, it would have more than likely been catastrophic if it was bad enough to stop his heartbeat and they would have more than likely not have gotten his pulse back on the field or in the ambulance.

I say just cancel the game. 

Game has now been suspended/postponed for tonight.

They need to formally announce - even if its just a statement of no game tonight.  People in the stadium should not "get the news" by watching equipment get packed up.

This is where I am. The fact that they waited gives at least a little good feeling to the situation.

Same, I was at that game. 

From that Wikipedia link:

The survival rate is 58%, which is an increase in comparison to years 1993–2012, where only 34% victims survived. This increase is likely caused by the prompt CPR, access to defibrillation and higher public awareness of this condition.[1]

Pretty good breakdown of the medical condition that everyone here is speculating on. 

 

Prayers for Damar and family!

 

 

Bayless is trash.
