Los Angeles Chargers tight end Donald Parham was stretchered off the field during Thursday night’s game against Kansas City.
In the opening quarter of the Thursday night game, Parham was the target of a Justin Herbert pass in the end zone. The tight end dove for the ball and appeared to hit the back of his head on the turf.
Parham was then motionless on the field, requiring trainers to rush onto the field. Below is the video of the injury:

Parham was then stretchered off the field.
Before being taken off the field, Parham regained consciousness and was squeezing the hand of a trainer, which is a good sign. There has been no updated report on his status at this time.
