It will take time for the medical team to give more information than vitals...
Based on what was observed and available reports, I think it is fair to assume a cardiac arrhythmia either from contact or genetic predisposition (or both) that required CPR and an AED to get him into normal sinus rhythm. The risk from the pulseless time period during the CPR is lack of oxygen to the brain. Sedating a patient and placing them on a ventilator is not that abnormal for this type of situation. They will need to run neurologic tests and possibly an MRI of the brain to better understand the possibility of these injuries. It will require time.
It would be hard to give substantial updates until tomorrow.
Not everyone can be an NFL player. As someone in the medical field, I encourage everyone to learn CPR and how to work an AED.
