There are 250 million footballers globally. The United States hosts the top football players through NFL , holding just 1696 players in the last 11 years. Extreme sports come with unpredictable and severe injuries and not to mention the importance of maintaining one's mental health. This begs for attention to longitudinal healthcare planning and engagement.
"Taking on a challenge is a lot like riding a horse, isn't it? If you're comfortable while you're doing it, you're probably doing it wrong." - Ted Lasso

In this episode, I am in conversation with Kelvin Beachum, NFL Player at Arizona Cardinals. We discuss the dedication, resilience, and impact it takes to be an athlete, the techniques he uses to ensure he strives to balance sports and life, and we soundboard how healthcare can be made more accessible in a longitudinal format to such players. When dedicating one's life to such a sport, we within healthcare must equally think about their family members and caregivers long term and the implications their dedicated career would have in a positive and negative lens to give the entire unit the best healthcare possible.

The NFL only covers healthcare for five years after retirement. After that, their health plan can cost up to $35,000 in premiums annually. While the NFL provides healthcare stipends, they do not even amount to the premium payment on the league's plan.

We, in silence, acknowledge that making healthcare a fundamental right is critical, and this holds while disregarding one's race, color, income bracket, and profession chosen to empower a life with good health and dignity.
We channel our Ted Lasso within us and wrap up the episode agreeing we need empathy and compassion within the field of sports and health.
