Joe Buck and ESPN were now covering a news event, not a football game. Hamlin was in cardiac arrest and his life was in danger.
In the middle of the first quarter on “Monday Night Football,” ESPN’s Joe Buck’s call was pretty innocuous, “Here’s [Tee] Higgins … wide open …to midfield and lowers the shoulder for 13.”Buck’s partner Troy Aikman started saying, “This is where Joe Burrow is so good …”Buck responded: “Maybe [Damar] Hamlin”
Buck’s instincts were correct. In these situations, less is more, because the situation is so serious and the information is so limited. A picture of Bills quarterback Josh Allen showed him with his hands over his nose and tears in his eyes. The image showed the seriousness of the situation better than anything.EarlSkakel/Twitter
