Jets Cornerback Stiggers Collapses in Practice | NFL News

New York Jets cornerback Qwantez Stiggers collapsed during joint practice with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, prompting an immediate medical response and a 10-minute pause in drills. Though conscious and able to talk, he was given an IV on the field before being transported to the hospital. The team hasn’t released official details, but coach Aaron Glenn praised the medical staff’s quick action. Stiggers, entering his third NFL season after a unique path that included stints in the CFL and Fan Controlled Football (and no college football), has been a key contributor for the Jets, starting four games last year and posting career highs in tackles. His health is critical for the team as they gear up for the season. Fans are watching closely for updates on his condition and recovery.
