This moment with Damar Hamlin &amp; the medical team … I have chills. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/NFLHonors?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#NFLHonors</a>

Wow. Special, special moment at the NFL honors: The <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Bills?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Bills</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Bengals?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Bengals</a> medical staff along with doctors from University of Cincinnati Medical Center are on stage....<br><br>And Damar Hamlin just walked out and is about to give a speech.<br><br>Not a lot of dry eyes there...

Brooke Pryor @bepryor

Didn't expect to tear up during NFL Honors, and yet can't help but get choked up seeing Damar Hamlin on stage with the team of people who saved his life. <a href="https://t.co/jQecMPW17i">pic.twitter.com/jQecMPW17i</a>

Amazing and moving to see Damar Hamlin on stage at NFL Honors with the incredible care group that's come to be known as Team Damar. "It's a lot easier to face your fears," he said, "when you know your purpose." In his case, that's a new way to uplift others through his story.

Jon Scott @JonScottTV

I cannot believe that night in Cincinnati was only 5 weeks ago.<br><br>True miracle to see what we did tonight after what we saw on that one.<br><br>Everything about that — from NBC piece, to medical teams present, and Damar Hamlin sharing stage with them — was perfect.

Joshua Brisco @jbbrisco

It's barely been a month since Damar Hamlin nearly died on the field. Imagine this moment a month ago. It's incredible.

Maddy Glab @MadGlab

Damar Hamlin at NFL Honors has all of us a little teary eyed…so great to see that smile on such a big stage. For 3!!!

Harold R. Kuntz @HaroldRKuntz3

That's a cool moment to honor the Bills and Bengals medical staff and honor Damar Hamlin.
