Damar Hamlin remains in critical condition after going into cardiac arrest on the field during Monday's game between the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals.

Dorrian Glenn, Hamlin's uncle, told ESPN's Coley Harvey outside the hospital Tuesday evening that Hamlin "is improving from where he was yesterday," adding, "We are just going to continue to pray, and I know he is in great hands with the medical team he has here. They have been doing a tremendous job."

Hamlin had his heartbeat restored on the field after suffering cardiac arrest following a hit in the first quarter. CPR was administered to Hamlin on the field for multiple minutes after he collapsed.

"I know he's still here, I know he's fighting," Glenn told ESPN. "We appreciate all the prayers and support we have been getting from people all over -- not just the country, but the world. ... It really means a difference for my family to see that, and I know it'll mean a difference to Damar when he sees that."
