After earning his first win of the 2025 season at Richmond Raceway, Austin Dillon surprised those watching when he revealed in his winner's interview that he recently suffered a broken rib.
He later expanded on that in the post-race press conference. "I don't like to talk about it, but I fell off a ladder pulling my bow case off, getting ready for hunting season," explained Dillon. "Fell on top of the bow case. It knocked the breath out of me. Knew it was pretty bad. Went ahead and raced Iowa. I got it X-rayed -- seventh one on my right (side) is broken.
