- Not our usual show this week, right now with only one topic on everyone’s mind it felt right to dedicate our entire video to discussing the incident that happened during Monday Night Football involving Bills Safety Damar Hamlin.
The thoughts and prayers from everyone here at New Heights are with Damar, his family, and everyone from the Bills and Bengals organizations.

No ads, no theme, not even a name drop or mention of Jukes - thanks Kelce bros for bringing a real, no BS response from a player's perspective, without all the other stuff. Shows how much the hit, the aftermath, and Damar Hamlin is top of mind on the NFL community right now.
gotta love the realness
Love these guys! 🤗❤️
Well said, Anthony! Thank you and thank you Kelce bros.
Man, the look on Travis' face throughout this entire video speaks volumes to how this has impacted the entire league. Much love to all of you guys.
Travis look like he seriously considering retirement…
This shit definitely effected him a lot
@@yungjoka5962 that was the first thought in my head seeing his emotions aswell.
Yeah it really really really looks heavy on him, man. That tackle could happen to anyone. Its just a huge shame.
@@dougreynolds6930 as sad as I would be, because I love Travis Kelce. Could not blame him. He’s already blessed to be considered a top 3 tight end of all time.
Applaud to Jason for being big brother on this one. You can tell it’s really taken a toll Travis and Jason took control of the conversation knowing his little brother isn’t really feeling it. Still praying Damar pulls through and for comfort for his family 🙏❤️
Was thinking the same he seems like such a great big brother to have.
Travis going over the middle every game could be playing into that...dont know, but maybe
I think this hit fans hard just the same.
But definitely more for the players.
Agree 100% I love both of these guys.
My thoughts exactly. He knew his little brother wasn’t doing so hot right now and he did what an older brother does.. Much love and respect ❤️🏈Prayers to Damar and the whole NFL community🙏💪🏻
Your parents raised you boys right. Respect for you both.
Props to Mama Kelce and Ed Kelce.
Spot on!! Good parenting trickles UP to reflect how the kids grow.
Was thinking the same.
Watching Jason lead on this as he often does, and being able to see him supporting and guiding Travis who’s clearly being affected by this reinforces my thoughts that one day he’ll be a fantastic coach if he chooses that path for himself in the future.
The look on Travis’ face is very upsetting. You can see how much he cares about the situation without a word being said
As someone who attended the game, when it started to set in the seriousness of Hamlin's condition, you could quite frankly hear crickets in the crowd. We were all praying for his survival. Went to the hospital to show support that same night and it's truly heartbreaking to just think that a young man is fighting for his life and there's nothing we can do about it. Prayers going Damar Hamlin and his family's way! 🙏
Was there too. I wasn’t quite sure what happened at first and I was pretty confused because I thought it was a routine injury at first. But when I saw josh Allen crying, I knew it was bad. The whole stadium was rockin and loud and there was so much energy, but when it all happened, everything was different. You could quite literally hear, in a stadium of roughly 70,000 people, the ambulance leaving all the way out to the highway
I'm sure at least half the stadium was in tears 💔
@@MichaelS3441 god bless both of you 🙏
Hits him harder because even though this is super rare, getting a helmet to the chest is a real possibility for a te like Travis.
I was watching on TV but I knew it was pretty serious when I saw 60,000 people staring and not a single peep anywhere
Just another example why the Kelce brothers are truly a class act.
Prayers up for Damar and his family.
My other hope is that Tee Higgins is able to move past this and realize that this isn't his fault and he did nothing wrong
Isn't that the truth? I can't imagine how traumatizing that would be for him.
Hopefully he can understand that and deal with it in a healthy way. Definitely don't want to see this situation get any worse. #prayfordamar
@@jlcricket4055Yeah that is the truth, but that doesn’t make it any easier for Higgins. Human minds can be illogical, and it’s perfectly normal to feel survivor’s guilt for something like this even if it isn’t your fault. I hope Higgins can work through those emotions and doesn’t let the negative thoughts take control, that can’t be easy being at the center of this tragedy.
Travis' mood and emotion shines through. Jason's eloquence shines through
Y'all didn't have to make this video. Thank you for doing so.
All my positive thoughts and hopes and wishes go to Damar Hamlin, his family, the Bills and Bengals organization, and BillsMafia.
From a sad but hopeful member of Chiefs Kingdom.
PTSD for all the players in the NFL should be addressed. I hope that the players who were at the game get the help they need. I also hope the players who weren't at the game but this affected get the help they need.
You can tell the concern on both their faces and their voices.
This was the most important episode New Heights has had . Talking about the situation and how it effects themselves and the entire NFL community. God bless Demar and his friends and family.
Fuck man you can tell the difference between the brothers right here too, Jason thinks first considers and deliberates while Travis wears his feelings on his sleeve and is passionate through and through. You two are great thanks for talking about this.
In 2020 my then 22 yr old son was in a UTV accident. I got the call 12 hours after it happened. Initially I knew nothing other than he was in ICU, three hours away. He fractured 2 vertebrae and severed his spinal cord. He's a T9 paraplegic now. Knowing he was all alone that whole time and being so far away was the worst feeling as a mother. The not knowing was gut wrenching. While not the same as cardiac arrest, the unknown for a few days was terrifying. My God watch over Damar and his family.
Im so sorry that happened to you, your family, and your son. Thankfully his mother and a few family were in the crowd at the game so his mother went in the ambulance with him and the rest of the family were able to get to the hospital immediately.
I’m very sorry that happened to you & your family. I lost a good friend in high school to an ATV accident. Life is so fragile🙏🏼
God bless you and your family ❤
Bills Mafia here. Missed this in January thankfully because I don’t think I could’ve handled watching it at the time but now, knowing Damar is healthy, back on the field doing what he loves having such an impact in the world. Thank you for doing this episode. It’s very important.
As a chiefs fan our bills rivalry is a mutual respect thing. I nearly cried when I saw Hamlin go down and was praying so hard for everyone but mainly him. I respect you guys for making this video.
I'm a Chiefs fan who loved the Bills and hated Bengals before this game. But after Monday's incredible act of sportsmanship and respect for the players, I have gained enormous respect for Sean Taylor and the whole Bengals team. Walking off in solidarity with the Bills (and the Bengals players processing this tragic injury) was one of the most amazing, big-hearted decisions I've ever seen from an NFL team. Kudos!
@@KCMagicC yes I agree, I have so much respect for the Bengals (even though they faked an injury against the chiefs) but massive massive amount of respect for both teams.
Thanks, Bills fan // Impressed by the leadership Monday night, the family-like response by all and not just business, fandom
Seeing Josh’s face just drove it home for me. It was horrifying. The pic of Josh & Joe was heartbreaking.
I did also. I haven't been able to get Damar off of my mind. I am so happy that he is awake and communicating!!!
These are two well parented men. The compassion and empathy they both showed really means something.
For real. Momma K needs to write a parenting book. My kids are almost grown but Id read it.
Watching this a year later and it’s just good to see how the Kelce brothers showed so much respect for the seriousness of the situation without knowing the outcome. Thanking God that Damar made a full recovery & is suited up for this season (not sure if he’s actively played yet but he’s participated in practice and training).
Huge respect added for not playing clips of the incident. We all know what happened, we all saw, it becomes disrespectful to replay someone else’s trauma for views. Much respect and maturity out of the brothers.
Pray for Damar Hamlin🙏
While you're praying I'm going to use technology to save his life. If prayers worked, the hospitals would be empty.
@@zaineridling are you the doctor? Should I know if your the doctor best we can do is pray to God. God listen to our prayers technology can’t save him without God helping prayers up Damar Hamlin
Went up to show support outside the hospital, super scary and sad situation. Really hope everything turns out alright.
Bless you for that
Most people have never seen nor had to preform CPR on someone. It's a very traumatic experience for everyone involved. Prayers for Damar, the Bills and Bengals.
I've done it and hope to never have to do it or see it done again.
I've done it several times, knowing how to perform a proper CPR is so important, as you can save someone's life
@@andrewboyce7268 same here.
@@hirnhautabc that is true, even with knowing how to properly administrator CPR, most never have to use it.
@@courtneylstephens hopefully the are never in a situation where they have to use it. Prayers up for #3
What will always make this show amazing is the unique brother relationship of Jason and Travis. This episode, more than ever, I feel we saw Jason take the big brother reigns. Jason has always been described as the "ethereal thinker" of the two, so it's no surprise to me that he seemed further along in the process and vocalizing of the thoughts. That being said, Travis comes in at the end with a beautiful statement. I feel this was able to occur because of Jason taking the lead. What beautiful brothers. What a beautiful show.
You can hear the unease and concern in both their voices, especially Travis. Continuing to pray for Damar
This is a similar situation that happened to Christian Erickson during a live game in the Euros(soccer).He suffered cardiac arrest during a big game,and thanks to the quick reactions of the medical team and players his life was saved thanks to on pitch CPR.And now he’s back playing top level soccer for Man Utd.
Prayers for Damar from the UK
Kudos to the Kelce brothers...class acts. Prayers up for Damar.
big respect to you guys for dedicating this episode for him
Travis’s emotions says everything. Praying for the Bills team and Damar’s family.
I’m a chiefs fan and when I saw this I got tears in my eyes noticing how much it was hurting both teams i started praying afterwards
So did I Tara.
As Chiefs fan, I was thoroughly invested in the Bengals / Bills game.
However, afterwards, I'm numb to it all now.
@@EnterpriseNCC-1701 same here. Doesn’t even feel like anything related to football past Monday matter anymore.
Appreciate the nuanced and thoughtful take by these two. Usually, I just send good vibes, but as the mom of a 22-year-old son, I actually prayed for Damar & his family before my feet hit my ground this morning. Hope he fully recovers!🙏
You guys are incredible. You probably have no idea how many of us look forward to your takes on everything from football to life
KELCE BROTHERS SPEAK TRUTH listen to these NFL players and about real issues affecting MENS mental health 💯 love this podcast.
A sad Travis Kelce is devastating. Great job guys, you are classy men.
These are the big brothers everyone wants. Love these guys. Thought and prayers for Damar and family.
Two great dudes talking about what’s important, so much respect for you both.
I really feel bad for that player.I have been praying 🙏 for him and his family. I will say that watching all of the players response was heartwarming. The entire team huddled in a mass prayer. Each team really showed how they cared for their play mate.
CLASS. There's no better word to describe what this episode entails than "class". Been following Travis since his "Hot Ones" debut and you can really tell that he's grown so much as a human since that time. Jason being the older sibling in this situation and understanding how much it has affected Travis and leading this episode is something to love.
All love and prayers for Damar Hamlin as we hope for a full recovery and a return to the field in the future.
Absolutely love your hearts! Mama & Papa Kelce did great. Prayers up for #3 ❤️💙
The Kelce brothers are just good guys. Just straight football love and support. No ads, no gimmicks, no self absorption. This is different for RUclips. Thanks guys.
I'm grateful you both spoke about this from players' perspectives. You have it exactly right. I also want to say I was very glad to see how the NFLPA stood up for its members in such an emotional time. All workers need a UNION. My thoughts are with Damar and his family as he fully recovers.
Jason and Travis are 2 of my fav players of any era and to see them this somber is down right surreal and heartbreaking I cant even fathom How Hamlins family is holding up... but Prayers to all when something this tragic happens the game stops being on a team stops.. we become humans united and that how it should be. Jason Travis well done and prayers to you and your family. Its guys like you that restores hope and faith in human kind...
As a football fan, seeing that happen live, still has me shaken. I am consistently praying for Damar, his family and friends, and teammates. I appreciate hearing both your perspectives and it just further proves how deeply this event has affected the NFL community.
You guys couldn’t have been anymore professional. Thank you, thank you, thank you for being human❤️
Watching this months later, knowing he’s fine, and still sobbing. Thank you for your sensitivity and humanity.
I’ve been looking forward to this all morning. I knew you Guys would do Justice to His story ❤❤Thank You 🙏❤️🙏At this point, There is One Team..Damar’s
Huge respect for you guys doing this episode for Damar Hamlin! The great thing about football is that it brings people together as one and the support around the world right now is incredible! 🙏
Definitely not a usual show, very somber atmosphere. And Travis' sad face made this segment evenn more surreal. Salute to the Kelce brothers and their production team. Very classy, professional and respectable. Lets pray there's good news in the coming days for the Hamlin family.
You guys are being so vulnerable and we appreciate you talking about this difficult topic and how you all feel about it. Love and prayers for Damar, his family, and all of you guys affected by this. ❤️💔
I loved this show before but this just shows how thoughtful and just genuinely decent people the Kelces are. The real concern they have for not just Damar but his family is really great. Pray for Damar and appreciate what these human beings are risking playing this game we all love
The seriousness of the situation is sending shockwaves through the Nation, not just in football but all sports. Thank you guys for the conversations. We NEED to talk about these things instead of ‘just moving on as if everything will be okay’ because sadly, sometimes.. it’s not. Awareness and communication is so important. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and helping all of us process this.
I used to play rugby, and when I’d hear my dad say how frightened he was after he saw me take a big hit, I’d always laugh it off, or even scoff. However, hearing this perspective has really made me appreciate the point of view of people watching their loved ones played contact sports. So, thank you as usual, guys.
Thinking of Damar daily, praying for a full recovery. ❤️💛❤️💛
I think everyone right now is that guys fan. Rooting for him to pull through, we're all fans right now. I know he has my prayers.
Well said and expected nothing less from the brothers! Mad respect to Travis for holding them tears back. I see you bro, you not the only one 😢
As always, a class act by the Kelce brothers. Thank you for doing this.
You two are class acts. Proud to call myself a chiefs fan, a Kelce bros fan, and a sports fan
Feel horrible for the NFL community and the Player families. This might have been the best, most real episode yet! Circumstances suck, but man, you guys expressed true & raw emotion. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for this heartfelt and serious and sensitive discussion. Hats off to you, your teammates, and all the NFL -- and your families. I've really appreciated the focus on family and team family from most everyone. Hope you all feel the love and support being sent your way! Getting back on the horse is tough...
So much respect for you both!!!
I really appreciate Jason referencing “sports” as a whole and not just football. Hugs and prayers ! ♥️
Much respect to Jason & Travis. And Big prayers going up to Demar Hamlin and his family. Life is way more valuable than a game.
😇🙏
The reality that all of these guys literally put their lives on the line for our entertainment has never hit home like it just did. You guys are appreciated. My thoughts go out to Damar Hamlin, his family, and the entire NFL family.
Much love guys to you and all the NFL. Been praying for Damar, his family but didn't even think of the rest of all the players on every team. I will now though. I think as a fan of football one of millions we all have heavy hearts for what happened. I was watching talking to my sister who was watching at her house and I told her when he went down this isn't good, not at all and got off the phone and said a prayer right then. I seen a ESPN report just a little bit ago and it was said that the doctors seen last night what they wanted to see from him but he is still in ICU. So lets do our part if your the kind of person that prays keep it up and if not do what you do is all we can do right now. Thanks guys for coming on even though we know your hurting and with heavy hearts.
Those teammates are your family, and there is nothing more comforting than being around your family after something traumatic such as this. I’m so very thankful that both of you have your football families and your biological families to support you. So of course it’s comforting for you to be back in your facilities with them. All fans, and members of the teams are praying hard for Damar and his family - bio family and team family. You guys as people are way more important to us than a game of football. Prayers for all of you. ❤
A New Height in appreciation for the amazing humans y'all are, and love and prayers for all who play this game for us fans! I resolve to never take for granted the humanity of this game we love. 92%erz praying for DAMAR HAMLIN & FAMILY which is all of us in this life, "Love ine another " ❤️🙏
Bills mafia here Love u guys much respect listen every week thank you for all you do! Hope to see u BOTH on the field!!
I have been struggling with this a lot. I can't watch or think about football right now. I just want to know he's making forward progress. I've been checking for updates two-three times a day. Pray for Hamlin 🙏❤️
It is great that they are using their platform to address the serious issues that go on in the NFL.
When he recovers and sees the love shown for him will be amazing, then when he sees the charity donations he’ll be in shock. Was go happy to see all the fan love from all over and all teams.
I really appreciate you all doing this episode. I look forward to New Heights every week. I knew after MNF that your next episode couldn't be normal, but I just hoped you would put out an episode this week, anticipating it would be somber. It's good that you devoted the episode to Hamlin and the situation, gave us your own perspectives, and some insight into how the rest of the NFL is processing this. For all of us fans, though, an episode like this also helps us process our thoughts and emotions when you players try to put your thoughts and feelings into words, despite being vulnerable. I think it speaks volumes that you guys are relatable and are willing to connect with us, no matter the high or low of the situation. Love you guys.
This incident is absolutely the scariest and most tragic thing I have observed in all of my years watching football.
We pray and lift this young man up and pray for healing and recovery.
We support and send love to all involved🙏🏻😟
Love, respect, prayers to Damar Hamlin, his family, the Bills/Bengals, Tee Higgins. Thank you Kelce Brothers for handling this respectfully. Much love to you, your families, and especially your football families. Love a Nurse.
We love you guys! Thanks for processing this with us. This has been heartbreaking for everyone who loves football, and has favorite players that we worry about and want to keep safe. You two are at the top of my list, and I wish you all the best as you work through this scary situation. Hoping for good news on DeMar before Saturday!
Well said. Thank you guys for the joy you bring us every Sunday and all that you put yourselves through to do it.
I really appreciate you both taking time to make some kind of video this week to provide a glimpse of how this impacts players. Ive sadly lost a few teamates from my football days and its just crushing. hopefully Damar makes a full recovery for his sake, the sake of his family, and the sake of every player in the nfl
Very powerful to listen to you guys talk about this with that much openness and emotion. Thoughts and prayers are with Demar and his family.
We love y’all and thank you for having this level of compassion.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts about this horrible incident! Sendinglove to all of you football players, and families!
Huge props to you guys sharing your perspective and empathy. All we can do now and is pray and try our best to leave a positive impact on this world.
The whole world feels the pain all you players must be going through. We love you all- plz stay safe.. prayers n thoughts go out to Hamil and his family, team mates and all in the football world.
Great episode❤️ so much respect for you 2, prayers are still out with damar🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you both for being so candid and real, on this cast.
We love and appreciate you guys. Thank you. Prayers to Damar and his family. Prayers for the safety of all of you who give so much and put so much on the line for us every week.
Thank you for letting us hear from you. Knowing how you are doing is important to all of us. I am sure this is a scary reminder to all who play this sport of what can happen. Continued prayers for Damar, his family, his teammates and all those close to them. 🙏❤
I’m an eagles fan and my dads a bills fan we watch every game and when it happened I saw tears come to his eyes man. Praying everyday for damar #3
Much love and respect for what you and and said today. You’re both a class act, and it’s so apparent that you two put your hearts out there and aren’t afraid to show how you feel. Thank you. I e only ever seen this happen in hockey, and to see it happen in football shook me, just as it did the first time I saw it with hockey.
It’s been a very scary few days worrying about Hamlin’s health. I hope it doesn’t sound trivial but I really needed to hear your perspective about this situation and I deeply appreciate you both making this video for the NFL community and the fans. ❤️
Gosh I love you brothers….thank you for talking about your feelings.. and giving voice to what others may not be able to say. God bless Damar, his family, both teams and everyone affected by this scary situation
I love the Kelce morals. Y'all are some great role models! Thank you for everything through the ups and downs ♥️
Appreciate y’all both for playing the game and giving us all something to look forward too on Sundays keep doing what you guys are doing and praying for Damar 🙏🏾
Thank you both so much for being so raw and honest.
Jason you are an excellent communicator. Seriously thank you for your level headedness in all this and please keep using your voice for good
The compassion and empathy that you guys are bringing to this subject is truly incredible. I 100% agree with Jason that its encouraging to see the humanity of all the people reaching out and supporting Demar and his family. All the love, respect and support to you guys and to Demar.
I watch your podcast religiously every week. Finding this podcast has brought joy to my Wednesdays.
This particular podcast was heartfelt and kind. Thank you.
I was watching when it happened. I was terrified to think what could have been and was praying the whole time for Damar and his family. Thanks for being so honest gentlemen about how you feel. You're heroes to me. Please stay healthy.
Love you guys!! Thank you for everything you do! God bless🙏
Damn. You can't help but love these guys. You fellas kept it professional. Ready to hear from yall next week.
Prayers for Demar and his family. My mom was a driver in NASCAR and hit the wall at 108 G’s and I was hours away watching live on tv…. It is the most terrifying, gut wrenching and helpless feeling in the world and I can only empathize with his mom that was there watching BC I personally know that feeling. I’m just so happy to see the out pouring of prayers and positivity for him and his family and wish him the best recovery ❤
No disrespect but I think you mean 108 mph, 108 Gs she would have been a puddle.
How was your Mom a NASCAR driver?
@@fredwerza3478 How? What do you mean how? She did good in dirt track racing and worked her way up to NASCAR craftsmen truck series BEFORE Danica Patrick that only got there bc of her mouth skills not bc of her racing skills 🤷♀️. Google it. Kelly Sutton wreck at Kanas motor speedway
Bro the human body cannot possibly survive anything near 108Gs
@@danielmenker557 Right! Imagine how I felt watching it! The only way I even knew that was from the analytics afterwards. I have no reason to lie. Google it, Kelly Sutton Kanas wreck into wall
I know this was soo tough for you guys but much love and respect and you said it beautifully. Love and healing to Damar and prayers 🙏🙏🙏
You two are amazing!! Thank you for being you!! Thank you for just giving us a glimpse of how you are feeling & most likely how all players are feeling. So thankful for how the medical team handled this! And that Damar Hamlin is doing well now too!!
Love you Brothers - your humility and compassion is inspiring - so glad Damar is healing
So much love and respect to you both for this real and emotional take on what happened. Bless both of your teams and good luck with the rest of the season!
