450SX
Dylan Ferrandis – Concussion | Out
Comment: Ferrandis took a hard fall in the Houston main event when he ran into the back of Ken Roczen. The crash led to a red flag restart for the race. He suffered a concussion but no other injuries, and now will wait through the series' concussion protocol.
Brandon Hartranft – Back, Shoulder, Hip, More | Out
Comment: Hartranft incurred serious injury while practicing before the season. If you’d like to donate to his cause while also getting a chance to win a cool trailer from Upfits, go to Road2Recovery.com.

Comment: Musquin hurt his wrist before San Diego and hasn’t raced since. After Tampa, the team hopes to have another update available.
Justin Rodbell – Achilles Tendon | Out
Comment: Rodbell is out with a torn right Achilles tendon. It’s unlikely he’ll line up for any supercross races this season.

Derek Drake – Neck | Out

Vince Friese – Banged Up | TBD
Comment: Friese’s team told us that he’s sidelined for the time being, and we also saw him on crutches at A1. He’s likely out for Tampa, but our request for confirmation hadn’t been answered by his team at time of posting.
Kyle Greeson – Back | Out

Garrett Marchbanks – Wrist | Out
Comment: Marchbanks broke his wrist during pre-season training and remains out of action.
Carson Mumford – Wrist | Out
Comment: Mumford will return to action in Oakland on February 18 as a fill-in rider with Monster Energy/Pro Circuit Kawasaki after breaking his wrist in November.
Nick Romano – Knee | Out
Comment: Romano missed Houston while coming back from a shoulder injury, but then popped his knee without even crashing while preparing to return to racing. He suffered a torn ACL and might be out for the rest of the 2023 racing season.
Jo Shimoda – Collarbone | Out
Comment: Shimoda will miss several rounds of the 250SX East Region championship due to a broken collarbone.
