Kansas City Chiefs defensive end BJ Thomas has taken a huge step in his bid to recover from a scary medical incident that occurred at Thursday’s practice.
The second-year backup suffered a seizure during a special teams meeting and went into cardiac arrest thereafter, forcing the reigning Super Bowl champions to push their planned activities back to Friday.
Thompson was still unconscious on Thursday night, with his agent, Chris Turnage, revealing as much to NFL Media’s Tom Pelissero.
The player’s family had asked fans to continue praying for him while he remained stable at hospital.
Turnage has provided another update on BJ’s status, telling Pelissero the former Stephen F. Austin standout was awake and responsive as of Friday afternoon.
“A positive update: #Chiefs DE BJ Thompson is awake and responsive, according to his agent, Chris Turnage. One day after Thompson suffered a seizure and went into cardiac arrest during a special teams meeting, the second-year pro’s prognosis is good,” Pelissero shared to X/Twitter.

Thompson’s family must have gone through a sleepless Thursday night and will be pleased with his progress.
BJ Thompson Should Have On Thing On His Mind Right Now
BJ Thompson was picked in the fifth round by the Chiefs in 2023 following an impressive stint at the aforementioned university. He made one appearance during his rookie season, recording two tackles in a Week 18 win over the Los Angeles Chargers.
The DE will hope to recover in time to make the Chiefs’ 53-man squad for next season. Right now, his health is the most important thing. Football can always wait.
Our thoughts remain with Thompson amid this trying ordeal.
NBA Fans Are Loving Luka Doncic’s Hilariously Bullying of Ball Boys

The Dallas Mavericks lost game 1 of the NBA Finals series against the Boston Celtics with a score of 89-107. Luka Doncic, Dallas’ star player, performed outstandingly, scoring 30 points with one assist and ten rebounds in 38 minutes of play. However, he lacked sufficient support from his team, allowing the Celtics to take advantage of the situation. Despite focusing on winning the next game or even the series, Doncic was observed mistreating a ball boy.
In a video uploaded by the NBA’s official account on X (formerly known as Twitter), Doncic was seen throwing the shoes held by the ball boy at the courtside. When the Slovenian basketball player reached the ball boys and pushed the shoes that were kept in the hands of a young boy, both ball boys looked shocked, as this would increase their work by having to rearrange the shoes. However, when both of them realized that Doncic had done this, they smiled, while Doncic ran funnily and quickly hid. Despite being a funny prank on the ball boys, NBA fans act differently on Doncic’s action.
Some fans trolled Doncic for his action
One Fan said, “Wow, he’s a bully, not a good role model.”
The second fan mocked Doncic, referring to him as an all-time crying player: “If this happened to him, he’d cry and complain to the refs.”
