After Gary Kubiak collapsed at halftime last night, reports quickly dismissed the idea that Kubiak had suffered a heart attack or stroke. While the cause of Kubiak's collapse is still unknown, Adam Schefter has some news as to at least a portion of Kubiak's treatment:
Texans HC Gary Kubiak was treated with IV medicine designed to break up clots consistent with people who suffer strokes, per medical sources

Gary Kubiak was given Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), a protein that breaks down blood clots in people who suffer strokes, per sources.

I'm not a doctor, so you won't find me speculating about what's going on. All I'll say is that BRB continues wishing all its best, including a speedy and full recovery, to Gary Kubiak and his family.
