BJ Thompson appears to be making progress.

The Kansas City Chiefs defensive end “is awake and responsive,” his agent, Chris Turnage, told NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero on Friday, one day after he suffered a seizure during a team meeting and went into cardiac arrest.

The Chiefs’ medical team acted swiftly during the terrifying episode, with Turnage telling NFL Network Thursday night that his client “is still unconscious at this point, but he’s stable and vitals are good. His family asks for your continued prayers.”

The Chiefs canceled team activities Thursday in the wake of Thompson’s medical scare, pushing the final organized team activity to Friday.

They have their mandatory three-day minicamp next week before breaking until training camp in late July in St. Joseph, Missouri.

“I think it was good to get them out of here yesterday,” Reid said in a press conference on Friday. “And we’ve got support people here that can help them if they needed it for what they saw. That’s not a real pleasant thing to see. They came back today with good energy, but we kept them abreast all the way through, right to the end of practice there.”

Rick Burkholder, the Chiefs’ VP of sports medicine and performance, said Friday that kicker Harrison Butker notified medical personnel about Thompson’s state during the ordeal, according to NFL.com.

“Our team of that group of people provided CPR for him,” Burkholder said. “He had one AED shock and came back. He was in cardiac arrest for less than a minute, a minute and a half. Our players, security staff, coaching staff — they were phenomenal in handling the crisis. We then turned him over to the Kansas City (Missouri) Fire Department.”

Thompson was brought out of sedation on Friday and his prognosis is good.

“He’s alert. He’s a wake. He’s coming through quite well,” Burkholder said. “We don’t have a diagnosis and in medicine sometimes you don’t have that. But he’s awake and alert and he’s headed in the right direction.”

Defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo spoke about Thompson, 25, on Thursday evening during a charity softball game.

“Let me say this before I say anything, I’m thinking about BJ right now,” Spagnuolo said, according to Fox 4 KC. “It was scary. I think the guys were a little bit scared, I know I was.”

A fifth-round pick out of Stephen F. Austin State University in 2023, Thompson appeared in one game last season and recorded two tackles.

He became a Super Bowl champion in February following Kansas City’s 25-22 overtime win against the 49ers in Las Vegas.

“Super Bowl Champion.. I Like How That Sound,” Thompson, 25, posted on Instagram after the Chiefs’ Super Bowl celebrations at Allegiant Stadium.

Last week, Thompson and the Chiefs visited the White House to celebrate the team’s back-to-back Super Bowl championships.

“Posted at the White House got me feeling like the president,” he shared on social media.

Reid said on Friday that he was impressed how the team’s medical personnel responded to the scare.

“I jumped in there from my office,” coach Andy Reid said. “I’m not much help; they had it under control. But that’s tough. That’s a tough situation. We’ve been through a couple of those in my time. It’s never fun. Thank goodness, though, that if it had to happen, no better place than right here, where you had the support unit that knows what to do.”

The Chiefs open mandatory minicamp next week.

They’ll host the Ravens in Week 1 on Sept. 5 as they pursue their third straight Super Bowl title.
