Safety Damar Hamlin returns to Buffalo for 6th season after signing a 1-year contract with the Bills
Damar Hamlin, 28, signed a one-year deal to compete for a backup safety role as the Bills adjust their defense under new coordinators, after 14 starts in 2024.
- On Friday, the Buffalo Bills re-signed safety Damar Hamlin to a one-year contract, keeping him with the only NFL team he has ever known after his 2025 season ended early due to injury.
- Hamlin played only five games last year after suffering a season-ending pectoral injury in practice that required surgery. This follows his 2024 campaign, where he earned a starting role and recorded career interceptions over 14 games.

- Buffalo selected Hamlin in the sixth round of the NFL draft out of Pittsburgh, and he now joins a roster transitioning under new coach Joe Brady, who replaced Sean McDermott in January.
- Beyond football, Hamlin has championed heart health awareness through his foundation since his cardiac incident three years ago. He continues to advocate for CPR training and AEDs, building on his remarkable recovery.
