The Injured List Podcast®

Professional stock car driver Jayson Alexander joins The Injured List Podcast for a powerful conversation about racing, resilience, athlete identity, and the road to NASCAR.

Jayson shares how he got started in motorsports, what it takes to build a racing career, and how his background as a former Division I athlete and National Guard service member has shaped his discipline, mindset, and drive.

In this episode, we also discuss driver safety, the physical and mental demands of racing, and the importance of listening to the body before small warning signs become serious health concerns. Following the heartbreaking passing of Kyle Busch, we reflect on why athlete health and safety conversations matter far beyond crashes, injuries, and competition.

Presented by ILP Sports Consultants LLC, this episode highlights the importance of advocating for injured athletes, supporting smarter recovery decisions, and helping competitors protect both their careers and their futures.

We also spotlight Jayson’s racing journey and the opportunity for brands and sponsors to support a driven, disciplined, and purpose-driven athlete as he continues pursuing the next level in NASCAR.

On this episode of The Injured List Podcast, we welcome Dan Mader of Operation Domination and The Fantasy Football Advice Network for an in-depth conversation combining sports medicine analysis with fantasy football insight.

We break down featured athletes from the NFL Draft and discuss how injury history, recovery status, medical concerns, and landing spots may affect their future fantasy value. We also review several NFL players coming off injuries from last season who carry meaningful fantasy relevance heading into the year.

This episode is designed to help fantasy players, sports fans, and athlete advocates better understand how injuries can influence performance, workload, availability, and draft-day decision-making. Some players may be undervalued because of injury concerns, while others may carry more risk than their ADP suggests.

With Dan’s fantasy expertise and The Injured List’s medically backed perspective, we look at the bigger picture behind injury recovery, player projections, and realistic expectations for the upcoming season.

A must-listen for anyone preparing for fantasy football season or looking for a smarter way to evaluate injured and returning NFL players.

In this episode of The Injured List Podcast, we break down the injury profiles and medical evaluations surrounding key prospects in the 2026 NFL Draft — and how those factors could influence draft positioning.

While most draft coverage focuses on talent and production, NFL teams are making decisions based on something deeper:

durability, recovery timelines, and long-term availability.

We take a focused look at several prospects with notable medical storylines, including:

• Francis Mauigoa — recent back concerns and short-term risk evaluation
• Jermod McCoy — ACL recovery and long-term projection
• Jordyn Tyson — injury history and durability profile
• Chris Bell — ACL reconstruction (November 2025) and recovery timeline
• Drew Allar — ankle fracture, surgery, and return-to-play evaluation

This episode explains:

• What these injuries actually mean from a medical standpoint
• Where each player is in their recovery timeline
• And how NFL teams interpret risk vs. value on draft night

Because in the NFL, it’s not just about talent…

It’s about availability, projection, and longevity.

🎯 Key Takeaway

Medical evaluations don’t just influence draft decisions — they often reshape the board entirely.

Dr. Hutchinson DDS, has harnessed the latest in neuromuscular dentistry and impact technology to develop a mouthguard that does more than protect; it enhances.

NeuroGuard+ isn't just a mouthguard; by focusing on the jaw's physiological position, it provides an added layer of neuroprotection, significantly reducing the risk of sports-related neurological injuries.

All athletes should be using a custom mouthguard designed to their bite position. Dr. Hutchinson created the NeuroGuard+ as a means to maintain your physiological jaw position regardless of your bite. The appliance is designed to optimize your upper–lower jaw relationship to improve your strength, your balance, your oxygen intake, and drastically lower your chance of a concussion.

In this episode of The Injured List Podcast®, we break down two high-profile sports stories that highlight the real role of injury risk in elite performance and decision-making.

We start with Maxx Crosby and the collapsed trade with the Baltimore Ravens—widely believed to be about draft capital, but in reality, influenced by a failed physical and long-term durability concerns. We explain what a failed physical actually means in the NFL and why teams prioritize risk projection over raw talent.

Then we shift to Lindsey Vonn, who tore her ACL and chose to continue competing—ultimately leading to a severe leg fracture, compartment syndrome, and multiple surgeries. We break down how ACL instability can escalate into more serious injuries and why pushing through pain at the highest level can carry significant consequences.

This episode explores the intersection of:

1. Sports medicine
2. Performance longevity
3. Financial and organizational decision-making

At the core, both stories reveal the same truth:

👉 In elite sports, decisions are not just about ability—they’re about risk tolerance and long-term outcomes.

🎯 Key Takeaways

1. Why the Crosby trade was impacted by medical evaluation—not just draft picks
2. What a failed NFL physical reveals behind the scenes
3. How ACL injuries can lead to catastrophic complications
4. What Compartment Syndrome is and why it’s dangerous
5. The difference between competing through injury and compounding risk

In this powerful and wide-ranging episode of The Injured List Podcast, we sit down with two inspiring guests who are using their voices and platforms to make a real impact—on and off the field.

We’re joined by Sherine Blackford, founder of Loving Loic, a platform dedicated to raising awareness and funding for PKAN, a rare and devastating neurodegenerative disorder. Sherine shares her deeply personal journey, the realities families face navigating rare disease, and how advocacy, community, and purpose can rise from unimaginable challenges.

Learn more about the work she’s doing — and how you can contribute to the Super Bowl Give-Off fundraiser supporting PKAN research 👇

We also welcome actor and comedian Todd Marcel Doram, who takes us behind the scenes of doing live correspondent work from the Super Bowl, alongside Deb Whitcas and Blonde Blitz. Todd talks about the grind, the energy of the biggest stage in sports, and how humor and storytelling create connection in high-pressure environments.

This episode explores resilience, advocacy, creativity, and how people turn adversity into purpose—whether through awareness, fundraising, or entertainment.

💙 Loving Loic Foundation

The Loving Loic Foundation was founded by Sherine and Mark Blackford in honor of their son, Loic, who was diagnosed with Pantothenate Kinase-Associated Neurodegeneration (PKAN)—a rare and fatal genetic disorder that affects as few as three in one million children. What began as one family’s fight has become a movement uniting PKAN families, researchers, clinicians, and supporters worldwide around one mission: to fund and accelerate the development of a gene therapy cure.

In just two years, the Foundation has raised over $2.5 million, directly supporting groundbreaking PKAN gene therapy research led by Oregon Health & Science University and the Horae Gene Therapy Center at UMass Chan Medical School. This work builds on two decades of scientific progress and is designed to move a promising gene therapy from laboratory studies into human clinical trials.

This Super Bowl, we’re channeling rivalry energy into something bigger than football.

Loic is in Boston right now receiving treatment at Boston Children’s. So we’re hosting a Patriots vs. Seahawks rivalry donation war—two teams, one mission: fund the work that could save kids with PKAN, including our gene therapy research efforts with OHSU and the Horae Gene Therapy Center at UMass Chan Medical School.

Our strategy is bold—because the timeline is urgent:

Secure the remaining funding needed to complete pre-clinical studies and initiate Phase I/II trials

Strengthen partnerships among families, scientists, and donors to accelerate development and regulatory readiness

Expand awareness of PKAN and rare diseases to drive advocacy and support

How it works: pick your team, donate, and share. The team that raises the most earns bragging rights—but the real winners are the kids and families who can’t wait.

Every effort is guided by the belief that no child’s life is too rare to matter. Together, we’re transforming heartbreak into hope—and hope into action—for children like Loic and for generations to come.

Unlike traditional mouthguards, NeuroGuard+ is medically patented and designed to reduce G-forces from impact. It helps athletes maintain physiologic jaw alignment, increase strength, and perform at their best, making it a future-ready solution for athlete safety.
