This appears to be the result of a hit to the chest at the exact wrong time and stopped the heart. It has happened in baseball games from a line drive hit to the chest..............

He could have already had myocarditis (inflammation of the heart wall) and no know it. Which makes the heart more sensitive to any sudden irregularity.

For those (not RB) who think that cardiac arrests and heart attacks are the same thing. https://www.healthline.com/health/heart-attack/what-is-the-difference-between-heart-attack-and-cardiac-arrest

Amazing how we had the diagnosis within 5 mins of his collapsing. We sure it wasn’t from exerting himself before the hit?

Maybe baseball players should wear pads.

There was nothing wrong with that tackle.

And has happened in football games before. Usually not on tv

thats where ive mostly heard this happening..in baseball games...i remember in 1998, Chris Pronger, defenseman for the St Louis Blues hockey team, took a slap shot directly to the heart..he collapsed, eyes rolling back in his head. Just awful stuff. He recovered a few weeks later and went on to play 12 more years in the league. Since last night, NO information has not leaked out at all..thats troublesome....
