Jalek Swoll has provided an update after his crash right off the start of the first moto at the first SMX Playoffs round of the SuperMotocross World Championship. On the very inside of the track, Swoll briefly went off course, which caused a change in traction and sent him right, into the rear wheel of Haiden Deegan, causing the #33 machine to go down hard. Swoll was not moving and with the remaining 21 riders about to come barreling down the section of track he was laying on, the race was quickly red flagged. Swoll laid motionless for a minute or so while the Alpinestars medical crew tended to him. Eventually, he was helped to his feet and onto the medical cart. His day was done as he did not start the second moto.

The Triumph Racing post-race press release said the following:

Then, on Sunday, Swoll took to Instagram in a roundabout way to say he was knocked out in the crash. He will enter concussion protocol entering next weekend’s SMX Playoff 2 round in Texas.

Swoll entered the SMX Playoffs eighth in combined 250cc AMA Supercross and Motocross points but leaves the first round with zero points added and now sits 17th.
