Chiefs Defensive Lineman BJ Thompson in Stable Condition After Medical Emergency

Chiefs defensive lineman BJ Thompson remains unconscious after going into cardiac arrest on Thursday, but he is in stable condition at a local hospital. Thompson’s agent, Chris Turnage, offered a few new details about the situation on Thursday night.

Thompson is the Chiefs’ 2023 fifth-round pick out of Stephen F. Austin, and appeared in one game in his rookie season.

The Chiefs were set to hold their final offseason training activity (OTA) of the week after practicing on both Tuesday and Wednesday. Due to the situation, the Chiefs postponed all Thursday activities until Friday.

The Chiefs also still have a mandatory minicamp, which will run June 11-13. After minicamp, the team will be off until training camp starts in late July.
