Los Angeles Chargers tight end Donald Parham Jr. is in the thoughts of many after a scary moment during the Thursday Night Football game against the Chiefs.
During the Chargers’ first drive, Parham was carted off the field after hitting his head on the ground following an incomplete pass.
When being taken off, it was easy to see why players on both teams were concerned about the condition of Parham Jr.

When speaking about the Donald Parham Jr. injury later in the game, Fox broadcaster said he “wasn’t going to speculate”. But then he proceeded to talk about how the tight end may have been shaking because of the weather in LA.
LISTEN: Donald Parham Jr. is at the hospital with a brain/spine injury. Joe Buck says he'd never speculate on an injury, then speculates DP's arm tremors were bc "it's cold tonight, at least by Los Angeles standards."

Joe Buck was immediately trolled over his reaction to the Donald Parham Jr. situation.
I appreciate Joe Buck trying to put a brave face on it, but I don't think Donald Parham was cold…

Joe Buck really just said that maybe Parham’s injury is because it’s cold? pic.twitter.com/hddtmFamyc

While Joe Buck clearly has no idea what he’s talking about on the matter, we’ll await any further information on the Donald Parham Jr. situation.
