Widely recognized for his appearances on CBS Sports, ABC, and ESPN, Marty Jaramillo is considered the first Sports Injury Analyst to join a national broadcast team. From the College Football National Championship to NFL, NBA, MLB, tennis, and global soccer coverage, Jaramillo brings over 30 years of clinical expertise as a Sports Physical Therapist, Certified Athletic Trainer, and Strength & Conditioning Specialist. His trusted medical insight and dynamic on-air presence have made him a trusted voice for elite athletes and fans seeking a deeper understanding of performance and injury recovery at the highest levels of competition.
“Achieving the pinnacle of performance is not luck. It’s built, tested, and earned,” said Jaramillo. “After over three decades working with elite athletes, teams, entertainment greats, and business icons, I wanted to create a space for real conversations that bring together iconic voices from across industries to explore the essence of greatness: what drives, defines, and sustains it. Game Recognizes Game is that platform, and I found great partners in the NOW Studio and Manifest Media, who saw the vision and understood its purpose. Together, we built something meaningful, beyond stats or soundbites.”
“Game Recognizes Game cuts through the noise and gets real about what it takes to show up at the highest level,” added Mark Knell, Executive Producer and Co-Founder of Manifest Media. “It’s smart, unfiltered, and full of unexpected moments. Whether you're in sports, business, or the arts, these conversations will hit home.”
