Jess Lockwood is gearing up for a return in New York City January 6-7-8. Dr. Tandy Freeman checked on his progress last week and will do so again in the next 7 – 10 days. If he continues to progress Jess will be cleared to ride bulls again and New York City appears to be a conservative bet for his return.
Lingering effects from a 2021 pelvis surgery, and a shoulder fracture early in the season limited Jess Lockwood to six regular season events. He had one top ten finish, and qualified for one event championship round. Jess finished the season with 54 points, placing 72nd in the PBR World Standings.
After much thought and discussion, Jess opted in to the Teams Series in a limited roll, and was selected by the Oklahoma Freedom in the first round of the Supplemental draft. Jess will not ride a complete schedule as he continues to get back into riding condition. His short term goal and focus is to use the Team Series schedule and coaching to his advantage and get prepared for a run at the 2023 PBR UTB world title, which would be his third championship (2017 & 2019). Whatever success comes from the Team Series will be a bonus.
Jess Lockwood has yet to be cleared to ride a practice bull. While we anticipate this to happen sometime soon, he needs to wait for that clearance from Dr. Freemen. I was told that this isn’t a setback as much as we are proceeding with an abundance of caution not to return too early. Dr. Freeman remains positive and maintains that the shoulder fracture is healing as needed.

Jess Lockwood received good news last week from Dr. Tandy Freeman with a positive assessment on how his shoulder fracture is healing. Jess has a follow up CT scan early this week to re-assure both him and Tandy that there are no underlying issues. Jess is currently 56th in the PBR world standings with 54 points.
Jess Lockwood’s appointment with Dr. Tandy Freeman was moved to this afternoon from last week. The injury happened at the Oklahoma City event, five weeks ago. Jess is currently 56th in the PBR world standings with 54 points.
Jess Lockwood has his first appointment with Dr. Tandy Freeman this Thursday for further evaluation and hopefully a clearer prognosis as to when he may be cleared to ride bulls. At the time of his appointment it will be 5 weeks since he injured his shoulder.
