EP #460 RICK BURKHOLDER - KANSAS CITY CHIEFS VP OF SPORTS MEDICINE AND PERFORMANCE

Known as one of the top athletic trainers in the National Football League, Rick Burkholder enters his 11th season with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2023 and his sixth serving as the club's Vice President of Sports Medicine and Performance. Following his promotion in 2018, he continued to oversee the athletic training staff and added the team's strength and conditioning and equipment departments to his responsibilities.

Burkholder and his staff were instrumental to the health of the team during the 2022 season which culminated in a Super Bowl LVII victory over the Eagles. As postseason injuries plagued the roster, five key players, including QB Patrick Mahomes and WR JuJu Smith-Schuster, experienced injuries during the AFC Championship win. Under Burkholder's direction, including the development and execution of their individual treatment plans, and with the aid of the athletic training staff, four of the five injured players were able to return to action for Super Bowl LVII. Smith-Schuster went on to be the team's second-leading receiver in the victory and Mahomes threw for 182 yards and three touchdowns as he was named Super Bowl MVP.
