NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The American Heart Association said a Tennessee Titans player is one of this season’s NFL player ambassadors encouraging CPR certification.
Tennessee Titans Wide Receiver Chimere Dike is part of the Third annual Nation of Lifesavers Player Ambassador Class. The program promotes Hands-Only CPR through public service announcements, social media, and community initiatives.
The program began following the cardiac arrest of Buffalo Bills’ player Damar Hamlin during Monday Night Football in early January 2023.
The American Heart Association said more than half of people experiencing cardiac arrest outside the hospital do not receive immediate care.

The skies were closed on 9/11. A Nashville phone call helped save a baby’s life
September 11, 2001 is a day most associate with terror and tragedy. Austin Pollack shares a story from that day about hope and persistence: the effort to save a little girl’s life – with an organ donation. The problem? The young patient was in Houston, and her life-saving liver here in Nashville. With the grounding of all civilian aircraft, how could it be done? “Nobody ever said this isn’t possible.”
