"Our boy is doing better, awake and showing more signs of improvement," Elam posted to Twitter. "Thank you God. Keep the prayers coming please. All love 3!"

Hamlin has been in critical condition since Monday night, when he suffered a cardiac arrest following a hit on Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins.

Hamlin fell to the turf following the tackle and was administered CPR before an ambulance rushed him to the hospital.

The Bills also provided an update Thursday, saying that Hamlin has shown "remarkable improvement" and is "neurologically intact."  

Hamlin’s terrifying collapse to the turf stunned the NFL world as the league awaited news on his status. 

Thursday’s update is the most positive since Hamlin was rushed to the hospital Monday night.
