Damar Hamlin hits out at Antonio Brown after ‘biggest weirdo’ bizarrely suggested the Buffalo Bills safety had actually died – over a year after he suffered on-field cardiac arrest
Damar Hamlin hit out at former NFL star Antonio Brown after he shared an insensitive post about the Buffalo Bills safety on social media.
Brown, 35, bizarrely responded to a post on X asking users to name a ‘fictional character’s death that you have NOT gotten over’ with a photo of Hamlin, 26.
Hamlin, who had to be resuscitated on the field during game in the 2022-23 NFL season, slammed Brown over the controversial post for using his situation to play ‘lame games’, claiming the former wide receiver had tried to message him only a few days ago.
‘You just DM me on Monday? guess you playing lame games on twitter with my situation because I ain’t DM you back,’ Hamlin wrote as he quote-tweeted Brown’s post.
‘I pray God don’t ever let me turn into a burnt out old head like you.. I used to look up to you damn near s*** sad frfr. Talk bout a clone bring the real AB back!’

Hamlin went on to expose old direct messages from Brown as he urged the disgraced former football player to get off X amid his recent social media antics.
‘Been in my DM over a year talking to yourself,’ Hamlin said alongside a screengrab that appeared to show censored direct messages from Brown’s X account.
‘You was supposed to be an example setter. Now you the biggest weirdo we know! Get off twitter & go do some work with some kids or something. #PrayForAB,’ he added with a clown emoji at the end.
Hamlin went into cardiac arrest during the Bills’ Week 17 game against the Cincinnati Bengals on January 2, 2023.
He collapsed after making a tackle on Tee Higgins in the early stages of the Bills’ Monday Night Football trip to Paycor Stadium and had to be resuscitated on by medical trainers on the field.
Medics performed CPR on the safety, who was put on a ventilator and remained in a Buffalo hospital for over a week.
Hamlin made a miraculous recovery, making an emotional return to the NFL back in October.
Meanwhile, Brown has seemingly spiraled out of control on social media amid a months-long storm of social media posts.

Recently, Brown has launched a tirade of posts claiming CTE, a neurodegenerative disease many former football players are diagnosed with post-mortem, is not real.
Another troubled player Chandler Jones recently revealed that he and Brown were going to launch a ‘CTE podcast’.
Brown has been using #CTESPN’ – a hashtag he also used in his post about Hamlin – and has even tried to cash in on the gimmick by selling $40 t-shirt with it on after self-diagnosing himself with the degenerative brain condition, CTE.
Hamlin isn’t the only NFL star Brown has targeted on social media either with the former wideout attacking Tom Brady and Travis Kelce through their partners.
Earlier this month, he shared what seemed to be an AI-generated cartoon image of himself in a Pittsburgh Steelers jersey, kissing Kelce’s girlfriend Taylor Swift, who is wearing a light blue cheerleader’s uniform.
‘Move over Jizelle, what these Swifties talkin bout? #CTESPN,’ he wrote alongside the image on X, formerly known as Twitter.
Brown appeared to be attempting to rile up Taylor’s fans, known as ‘Swifties’, who are renowned for their fierce loyalty and protectiveness of the Anti-Hero hitmaker.
It wasn’t the first time Brown has used doctored images to bait a fellow NFL star as he previously used Gisele Bundchen as a means to troll his former teammate and her ex-husband Brady.

Brown antagonized Brady over his divorce from Gisele in 2022. He frequently posted photoshopped photos, suggesting that he’s having a romantic relationship with Brady’s ex.
Brady had encouraged the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to acquire the embattled Brown in 2020 amid accusations of sexual assault and harassment, which he has since settled out of court. He even allowed Brown to stay with him in preparation for the season.
A year earlier, Brady had pushed for the New England Patriots to sign Brown, only to have the team cut him after one game when the sexual misconduct allegation first surfaced.
But Brown has attacked his former teammate with the troubled star continuously blaming Brady for the end of his career.
