Chargers Release Update on Donald Parham Jr. Following Thursday’s End Zone Injury

Donald Parham Jr. has been diagnosed with a concussion but is expected to be discharged from the hospital later on Friday, the Chargers announced.

The tight end was held overnight for observation at UCLA Harbor Medical Center, and the team shared that he is alert and conscious.

During Thursday night’s loss to the Chiefs, quarterback Justin Herbert threw a dart to the second-year tight end in the end zone on a fourth-and-goal. But it appeared that Parham hit his head on the ground while going down to make the catch and was unable to hold onto the ball.
