Hamlin Released From Hospital
24th October, 2005 - 7:16 pm
ESPN - Seattle Seahawks safety Ken Hamlin has been released from the hospital, one week after he was severely beaten outside a nightclub.

Hamlin sustained a fractured skull, a blood clot on the brain and a fractured hand in the fight Oct. 17. He was released from Harborview Medical Center over the weekend, hospital spokeswoman Susan Gregg-Hanson said Monday. She declined to provide additional details.

Without Hamlin, the Seahawks beat the Dallas Cowboys 13-10 Sunday. It was the first game Hamlin missed since he entered the league as a second-round draft pick in 2003. Marquand Manuel started in his spot.

Although he couldn't be with his teammates, Hamlin had a videotaped message delivered to them. Players saw it Saturday night.

"He said he's there for us, watching for us and praying for us the whole time," cornerback Marcus Trufant said. "He's in everybody's hearts, and he'll be there in spirit with us at the game." [READ]
