All 32 teams may outline the number "3" on the 30-yard line of the field in Buffalo Bills red or blue, while players will also have the option of wearing black Nike t-shirts during warmups that say "Love for Damar 3."

"I want to thank — I know coach mentioned it earlier — our training staff for going out there, not knowing what’s going on but going through a checklist … saving his life," an emotional Allen told reporters.

"Being on that field, you lose sleep. You hurt for your brother. A lot of shared grief." 

The NFL announced Thursday night that the game between the Bills and Bengals will not be resumed and has been canceled.
