49ers’ Tarron Jackson Collapses at Practice, Hospitalized

San Francisco 49ers defensive lineman Tarron Jackson was hospitalized after collapsing on the field during a non-padded training camp session following a block on a running play. Medical staff responded immediately, and Jackson, who was briefly motionless, was stretchered off and taken to Stanford Hospital for evaluation. Head coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed Jackson was conscious, communicative, and able to move all extremities, reassuring the team. The incident highlighted the inherent risks of football, even in practice settings. Jackson, in his fourth year as a pro with prior stints on the Eagles and Panthers, had signed with the 49ers earlier in the year and was competing for a roster spot. Practice continued after the team learned of Jackson’s stable condition, and teammates and staff expressed hope for his full recovery.
