“His vitals are back to normal and they have put him to sleep to put a breathing tube down his throat. They are currently running tests. We will provide updates as we have them,” Damar’s marketing rep Jordon Rooney informed on Twitter.
Although a lot of fans questioned Rooney’s credibility, many claimed that he is a trusted source as he has been closely involved with the footballer for a long time. While it isn’t clear if the doctor or a close family member gave him that update, if what he has claimed is true, than a lot of fans can breathe a little easy as the safety’s vitals are back to normal.

However, still it would be too early to make any substantial claims. Moreover, one should keep in mind that the NFL, the UC Hospital or Damar’s family members, no one has issued an official statement as of now regarding the footballer’s condition. So we all have no option but to wait and hope for the best.
