Great look at the steps taken to harvest a hamstring graft and the reconstruction of the #ACL. Using a patella tendon graft remains the gold-standard surgery for elite stop & go athletes.

Special night honoring the men and women #athletictrainer who enhance the health & safety of #NFL players.

According to #nfl and IQVIA , lower body injuries, typically the source of most games missed, were down in NFL in 2023. Meanwhile, #concussions were slightly higher last season. PFATS NFL Physicians Society NFLPA

36 yrs ago today my childhood dream to be an #athletictrainer #physicaltherapist in #NFL came true. New York Giants Head AT Ronnie Barnes offered me a job my last semester at UConn Huskies ….making me the happiest man alive! 🙏🕺🏻 #grateful PFATS

After this type of surgery, this is GREAT news for #9.

So sad. Such a dominating force on the field and a big smile off the field.

Honored to attend JSMP 40-Year Celebration last night w/ my wife. Wonderful opp to thank local #athletictrainers , MD’s, and school/hospital admins who literally save lives. Big Thx to #JSMP Ex Dir Bob Sefcik & Excellence in Sports Media Award winner Heather Crawford. 🙏

Huge shoutout to Rick Burkholder and Kansas City Chiefs #athletictrainer staff for superb emergency care, #CPR + #AED managing BJ Thompson’s seizure and #cardiacarrest. PFATS

Best news of the day. 🙏

The Guardian Cap reduces head impact to help prevent #concussions. For training camp practices, it’s mandatory for all players except QB’s, K’s, and P’s to wear GC’s or highly graded helmets. This season they’re allowed to wear GC’s in games.

Once diagnosed with a #concussion, #NFL players have a well-structured and individualized plan to return to full contact.

Hope it’s a minor issue.

What happens inside the medical blue tent? Find out with former #NFL Head Athletic Trainer Mike Ryan.

Hate to see this injury for New Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave after he missed Wk 7 game just 2 weeks ago with a #concussion.
