While Jordon didn’t speak about Damar’s medical condition, he did share that the family was closely monitoring him. “What I can say is he’s fighting. He’s a fighter,” he said. “He was awake [earlier], and now he’s sedated. So, the family’s in good spirits. We’re honestly just taking it minute-by-minute, hour-by-hour.”
GMA anchor Robin Roberts asked Jordon about how Damar’s family was handling the situation. ” His family’s remarkable. They are a tremendous group of people. They’re strong. They’re supportive. Obviously, they’re worried. Damar is very close with his family,” Jordon explained.

Jordon also spoke about how he and Damar got close. He said that as a Division One football player he’d reached out and asked about interning because of his interest in exploring different opportunities. “He interned for me, so then we just became super, super close. We’re partners in a business together. We collaborate on a lot of things, and we’re really good friends,” he said.

The representative for the family also said that while they appreciated the outpouring of support for Damar and his loved ones, he did remind fans that the family still deserves privacy. “I think what’s most important is to give the family their privacy. It’s tough when you see someone on TV or you watch someone play a sport, you kind of don’t view them as a human a lot of times,” he said. “This is a human being. His family is going through a lot right now. I think it’s important for everyone to remember that this is a person, and his family is just trying to work through everything.”
