What happened?

In the first clip (titled "bugged zombie causing movement bug") you can see I encounter a bugged zombie stuck in place. Eventually it gets free. It hits me, and after that, my character experiences a movement glitch where my character sort of rubber bands back a few feet when trying to move. In the second clip (titled "movement bug") you can see this behavior, and how I get hit by the same zombie I observed being stuck in the first clip.

Reproduction steps

Find a zombie that is stuck in place running while aggravated
Get hit by it after it frees itself
Observe movement issues
