Denver waived former second-round pick K.J. Hamler with a non-football injury designation after a heart condition was discovered a few weeks ago. Since there is no injured reserved in training camp, Hamler was let go, but could return when healthy.
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — A brutal Monday for the Broncos' receivers room somehow became worse after Tim Patrick suffered a likely torn left Achilles tendon during 7-on-7 drills.
"After feeling some chest pains while out on break before camp started, I got everything checked out and was diagnosed with mild heart irritation, called pericarditis. I've got a treatment plan with medicine, and I am taking a quick break to get this taken care of so I can get back to doing what I love," Hamler wrote.
Per the Mayo Clinic, pericarditis often causes sharp chest pain when the irritated layers of the pericardium, a sac-like two-layered membrane that surrounds the heart, rub against each other. Professional athletes have returned to competition after developing and treating the condition. Hamler boasts 42 catches for 620 yards and three touchdowns in his career.
