The Buffalo Bills and cornerback Kaiir Elam provided updates on safety Damar Hamlin Thursday morning.

Elam tweeted that the second-year pro is “awake and showing more signs of improvement.”

“Our boy is doing better, awake and showing more signs of improvement,” Elam posted to Twitter. “Thank you God. Keep the prayers coming please. All love 3!”

Hamlin has been in critical condition since Monday night, when he suffered a cardiac arrest following a hit on Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins.

Hamlin fell to the turf following the tackle and was administered CPR before an ambulance rushed him to the hospital.

The Bills also provided an update Thursday, saying that Hamlin has shown “remarkable improvement” and appears to be “neurologically intact.”

Hamlin’s terrifying collapse to the turf stunned the NFL world as the league awaited news on his status.

Thursday’s update is the most positive since Hamlin was rushed to the hospital Monday night.

Hamlin reportedly has been responsive after opening his eyes last night, according to the NFL Network.

“[Bills] S Damar Hamlin opened his eyes last night and is responsive. Truly incredible,” NFL Network posted to Twitter on Thursday. “One thing that’s very clear from speaking to those close to him: They are endlessly appreciative of the medical care given to Hamlin on the field immediately, then over the last 72 hours.”
