2023 did not start on a good note for the NFL when the Buffalo Bills safety, Damar Hamlin collapsed to the ground during a game. On January 2nd, the football world held its breath as the Bills star took a hit in the chest and didn’t get up. Players stood at rapt attention as paramedics surrounded the 24-year-old, whose condition took a few days to improve.

While Hamlin himself has posted a few updates on his condition on social media, the NFL has been strangely silent. Although the Bulls’ safety seems to be doing okay for now, fans primarily know this from Hanlin’s own updates. This is something that is bothering NFL fans. And one fan in particular, a former controversial MLB player, took a shot at the NFL and Hamlin for their silence.

In the last few days, former Phillies and Mets star Lenny Dykstra has blown up Twitter with outrageous theories about what really happened after the NFL star went into cardiac arrest. Although it was reported that Hamlin’s condition was improving, perhaps the silence surrounding the issue speaks for itself. Or at least Dykstra seems to think so.

Even though Hamlin posted a video of himself just two days ago, talking about how CPR saved his life, Dykstra just doesn’t seem to be buying it. His tweet said.Nothing more from #DamarHamlin? Or just waiting for the next instructions from Big Pharma/The American Heart Association? @healthranger

When the Buffalo Bills posted a video of the safety, Dykstra seemed like he was on a peaceful path. But with his latest tweet, he is once again taking a dig at the NFL as well as Hamlin himself.

What are Dykstra’s theories so far?

In addition to the attack against the vaccine and the medical healthcare world in general, Dykstra apparently has no shortage of outlandish ideas. He even went as far as to say that the 24-year-old star has already passed away, but the Bulls and the NFL are trying to cover it up. Why they would do that is anyone’s guess, though.

It was a shock to see someone so young get a health scare like that, and doctors had a possible explanation. The Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins tackled Hamlin to the ground, where he collapsed right after getting up. Theories from medical experts said the Bulls’ safety may have experienced something called commotio cordis. It means a blunt force or sudden impact can lead to an instant cardiac arrest.
