Kansas City Chiefs’ BJ Thompson has been hospitalized after suffering a seizure and cardiac arrest Thursday morning at the Chiefs’ practice facility.
The 25-year-old defensive end is currently in stable condition at a Kansas City-area hospital, sources told ESPN.
An ambulance transported Thompson to the hospital from the practice facility, where Thompson was attending a “special teams meeting” when he experienced the medical emergency, according to Tom Pelissero, of NFL Network.
The team, for which Thompson was a 2023 fifth-round draft pick, canceled all activities scheduled for Thursday, according to a statement on NFL.com.
