One week after his on-field cardiac arrest, Bills safety Damar Hamlin has been discharged from the University of Cincinnati Medical Center and is back in Buffalo.

According to reports, doctors said that Hamlin's recovery had continued to the point where he was walking around the Ohio hospital where he was being treated, and handling a regular diet.

He flew from Cincinnati to Buffalo on Monday, where his recovery would continue.

The NFL world rallied in support of Hamlin in the days since his cardiac arrest, with fans raising more than $8 million for a toy drive he had started for his local community outside Pittsburgh.

On Sunday, players across the league celebrated Hamlin with shirts and tributes to show they were thinking of their NFL brother in his recovery.

Hamlin's teammates pulled off a tribute of their own, taking the first play of their first game since his injury for a 96-yard touchdown, much to Hamlin's delight as he watched from the Cincinnati hospital.
