Connor Zilisch Shares Surgery Update Following Scary Fall After Xfinity Series Win

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. NASCAR Xfinity Series driver Connor Zilisch posted an update on social media after undergoing surgery for his broken collarbone. The 19-year-old driver fell off his car while celebrating his race win at Watkins Glen International. Zilisch's fall made headlines during the recent race weekend, given the intensity with which he fell head first. While a head injury was ruled out, Zilisch's broken collarbone needed to be fixed soon for him to be race-ready for the Wawa 250 at the Daytona International Speedway on August 22. Newsweek Sports reported Zilisch's comments following his fall, where he admitted that he might need surgery for a faster recovery. He said: "I think it might be something that I might have to get surgery for. But in this case, I think surgery is something that speeds up the process, so you can get plates and screws and get it reconstructed back together.

But I've got a little motivation from Shane [van Gisbergen], my teammate, he had a plate put in and raced the weekend after. So, I don't know if I'll be that quick but hopefully my young bones will heal fast, and I'll be able to get back in it as soon as possible." Now, the 2025 Xfinity Series standings leader has confirmed that he underwent surgery on his collarbone. He posted on X: "Wanted to give everyone a quick update. Had surgery on my collarbone this morning to get a plate and screws to help with the healing process. Been a tough few days for me mentally, but all the love you guys have shown has certainly helped. Thank you." Wanted to give everyone a quick update. Had surgery on my collarbone this morning to get a plate and screws to help with the healing process.

On the topic of Zilisch's racing return, Trackhouse's team owner Justin Marks opened up. He said: "I think it's a discussion that we all have to have. We haven't really talked about much, obviously, since yesterday, but in the little bit that we've discussed in some of the quiet moments over the last 24 hours, it's going to have to be a group decision. "It's going to have to be sponsors, Chevrolet, the team, taking care of his development, taking care of him as a human and as an athlete, and then keeping his motivations high and making sure he knows he's got a group of people behind him that are supportive of him."

Denny Hamlin Calls Out Austin Hill For Massive 16-Car NASCAR Wreck

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Denny Hamlin has called out Austin Hill for causing the 16-car pileup during the Xfinity Series race at Watkins Glen International last weekend. Hill had recently served a race suspension for taking out Aric Almirola during the Xfinity race at Indianapolis. At Watkins Glen, Hill was battling Michael McDowell for second place. As they came side by side at high speed on the long straight, Hill made contact with McDowell in an attempt to prevent himself from crashing into the barrier ahead, where the track narrows. The bottleneck forced Hill to swerve aggressively, hitting McDowell in the process, which then led his No. 11 Kaulig Racing Chevrolet to crash into the barrier and cause a big pileup involving 16 cars. Hamlin gave an unbiased assessment, stating that Hill should have lifted off the gas instead of taking out McDowell. Speaking on the Actions Detrimental podcast, he said: "I mean I think he covered it well. He could have lifted. He probably should have lifted. But he didn't. He's just not going to get the benefit of the doubt from the general public, but I am like, 'OK, let me just think about this in an unbiased (way)' — and I feel like I'm unbiased on Austin Hill. "But even here he was there, he was outside. But here's what he didn't take into account, is that that is a part of the racetrack where the spotters have no idea where you're at.

More"So thinking that Michael McDowell is going to know that you're there at that portion of the track, there's no chance. No chance of that. He's supposed to go to the right quicker. So they both swung out, but Austin got the run on the outside. There's a wall here. What the 11 should have done is hedged more towards getting, got to get back on the track sooner than later." The best view I've found of the Michael McDowell wreck! Austin Hill is a terrorist! — The Joe (@TheJoe746) August 10, 2025 The incident led to a pause of over 45 minutes as the barrier had to be fixed for the race to resume. Hill was still in his car when he spoke to The CW about the incident. He said: "Mainly, I would get to people's right sides, and that time, I ended up getting to his left side. I thought that it could work. We obviously don't have a ton of spotters around here. I don't know if he has a spotter off of that carousel corner. "He might not. But as soon as I saw he was staying tight to the grass, I probably should have lifted. That was definitely just on me. Just driver error. I'm going for it here. The #88 is driving away from us and I felt like I needed to make a move as fast as possible on the #11. Destroyed a lot of race cars, so it's just really unfortunate."

Greg Olsen says he and Tom Brady have built 'really nice personal relationship' this past year at Fox

While Greg Olsen, an Emmy-award-winning color commentator, hasn't been shy about his feelings toward Fox management after his demotion last year, he's remained committed to separating his business grievances from his personal relationship with Tom Brady, who replaced him as the network's top game analyst. Olsen had Brady on the new episode of his podcast, "Youth Inc." to discuss Brady's youth sports journey and how it helped shape his competitive drive that eventually piloted seven Super Bowl victories. When Olsen joined "Yahoo Sports Daily" with Jason Fitz and Caroline Fenton Tuesday, Fitz referenced the recent Youth Inc. episode with Brady and asked Olsen if it's weird for him to be talking in that space with a colleague who is also a competitor in the sports broadcast industry. "It's really not weird at all," Olsen said. "Tom and I have gotten to know each other over the last 12 or so months and have actually gotten to have a really nice personal relationship. "We knew each other as players, but just on the field before and after games saying hello. But it wasn't really until Tom joined Fox that we really got to know each other more on a personal level, and I've just really enjoyed being around him, spending some time with him." Olsen said during his "Daily" appearance that he was just at the Fox seminar in California, where he caught up with Brady. But the former tight end's conversation with Brady on Youth Inc. was front and center for everyone to watch. And the All-Pros addressed the elephant in the room toward the end of the episode, albeit through the youth sports lens of how you can be a good teammate. "We've discussed this a lot privately. There's been a lot of speculation about our relationship, a lot of speculation about our working relationship," Olsen said on Youth Inc. "Something we used to try to preach with our kids all the time is, you can compete against people, but in order to prop myself up, I don't have to pull you down." Olsen added: "I think, and I'm not patting ourselves on the back by any means, I'm just using it as an example where you can be highly competitive and you can be highly motivated in a very competitive world that you and I now live in and still be incredible supporters of one another and still share information and still want to see each other do well." Brady notably took Olsen's place alongside Kevin Burkhardt as Fox's No. 1 game analyst after signing a 10-year, $375 million contract with the network. Brady's up-and-down rookie year in the booth ended with his first Super Bowl broadcast, just two years removed from Olsen calling the first iteration of Eagles-Chiefs on Fox. "I was very much a rookie this last year, but I looked up to a lot of people that I thought, 'Man, he does a great job!' And you're obviously one of the greats already at such a young age," Brady said to Olsen on Youth Inc. "I watched so much Greg Olsen broadcasting tape, and I just said, 'OK, well what's he do that I really like that maybe I can apply to what I'm doing in my prep or on air?' And then [do the same thing with] other people that have been in this business a long time because [I'm] trying something that's totally new and totally different." While alluding to the delayed gratification he received during the first chapters of his playing career, Brady stressed the importance of getting a little bit better every day. He also conceded that he knows not everyone's going to be a fan of his on-air work and that he's never going to be perfect. But, more than anything, he's trying to be "good with the man in the mirror," in other words proud of what he's working toward. "I'll be here for you for anything," Brady told Olsen on Youth Inc. "That's the reality when you ask anything, from now to the rest of my life, because you've been available to me, and that's what a great teammate is." Then Brady hinted at his and Olsen's competing roles in the network. "And there's a part with our jobs that people want to write about that — I don't give a s*** about any of that. I just care about my relationship to you," Brady said to Olsen on Youth Inc. "I know if I'm cool with you, that's all that matters. And I know that when you call, I answer. And I know when I call you, you answer. When I got a question, you answer it. And when you got a question, I answer it. ... This time will come and go, and the articles will come and go, but the only people that need to be cool are me and you, because that's all that matters to me in my life. So that's how I view it." Olsen is itching to call big-time games again, but he's also continuing to drive home the point that he can both push for that opportunity and support Brady in his role at Fox. Brady, meanwhile, is clearly thankful for that support.
