Hamlin’s longtime friend and business partner Gordon Rooney told CNN: “Although she’s been released from hospital, Dammar has been in a long recovery.

The statement comes just a day after Bills coach Sean McDermott told reporters that Hamlin was at the team’s facility almost daily, CNN reported previously.
“It’s limited, just in general, but it comes — and it really started today or yesterday — just trying to get back into a little bit of a routine, just fitting back in, taking it one step at a time,” McDermott said Wednesday as he spoke of Hamlin.
“The look of it, like walking around here, it’s positive and seeing three [Hamlin wears the No. 3 on his jersey] Just smile, just wave, raise hearts, and keep pushing. “It’s a bubble of positive energy just floating around the facility,” said offensive lineman Deon Dawkins.
