The Pat and Aaron Show Injury Report 2/9/2024 with Dr. Kumar | Florida Orthopaedic Institute

Dr. Neil S. Kumar, M.D., M.B.A. joins The Pat and Aaron Show to discuss some of the most notable injuries throughout the NFL.

Dr. Kumar shared his views on the joint committee between the National Football League and the National Football League Player Association, which published its findings that lower-body injuries occurred at about the same rate on turf fields as on grass fields in the 2023 NFL Season.

During the show, Dr. Kumar gave his thoughts on Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco's status for Super Bowl LVIII while dealing with multiple injuries. Pacheco was limited in practice this past week with an ankle and a toe injury. Dr. Kumar outlined some of the options the Chiefs' medical staff might be employing to help Pacheco recover in time for Sunday's big game. Listen now to hear what the doctor had to say!
