Panthers tight end Hayden Hurst has been diagnosed with post-traumatic amnesia after suffering a hit against the Bears on Nov. 9, his father announced Wednesday.
“@haydenrhurst has been diagnosed with Post Traumatic Amnesia by an independent neurologist as a result of the hit he took in Chicago November 9,” Jerry Hurst wrote on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter. “Slow recovery, don’t know when he’ll be back. Prayers appreciated!”
During the Week 10 Thursday Night Football matchup, Hurst was hit hard by defensive back Jaquan Brisker when trying to make a catch that ultimately slipped through his fingers. Hurst hit his head on the ground afterward and was slow to get up.
