Damar Hamlin has received a new tattoo as the one-year anniversary of his shocking cardiac arrest passed on January 2. The new piece, located on the back of Hamlin’s neck, shows a pair of hands forming a heart shape around a heartbeat. The piece was done by tattoo artist Alexander Brenes and went viral on Instagram after Hamlin posted it.
Hamlin, who recovered in time for the 2023 season, has played sparingly for the Bills throughout the season. Appearing in just five games, Hamlin has recorded two tackles this season for the team. The Bills are currently 10-6 and will likely make the playoffs even if they lose to the Dolphins in Week 18. However, beating the Dolphins could see the Bills win the division on the final day thanks to a head-to-head tiebreaker. Hamlin is currently listed as a questionable for the game against Miami.

Zion Williamson Clowned For New Tattoo
However, Damar Hamlin isn’t the only athlete getting some new ink. Zion Williamson recently showed off a prominent new tattoo on his chest of a large cross with a snarling lion peeking through it. However, the design was thoroughly clowned online as it is slightly off-center. The meaning behind the tattoo is unclear but Williamson appeared pretty happy with the design. What do you think of the tattoo? Let us know in the comments.
However, several other commenters remarked that Williamson should be focusing on his fitness and not new ink. This comes after Williamson’s alleged ex, porn star Moriah Mills, told Williamson to “get on the treadmill” and cut things like soda from his diet. Furthermore, the final three years of Williamson’s contract recently became non-guaranteed due to the significant amount of time he has missed due to injury in recent seasons. While Williamson can earn back guaranteed protection, the Grizzlies are currently able to cut him after the 2024/25 season without financial penalty. The contract change came into effect as Williamson missed more than 22 games last season.
