The Comeback Kid   |   Sideline Therapy   |   Creative Director

The Comeback Kid is an inspiring sports documentary from Sideline Sports that follows Octavion Wilson, a rising college football star whose dream was nearly cut short by a devastating diagnosis. Just as he was making history for his family and leading the Mount Union Raiders on the field, Octavion faced a life-altering battle with pericarditis and peripheral neuropathy. But this is not a story about what was lost—it’s about what was reclaimed. From heartbreak to heroics, witness the journey that earned him the title of Mayo Clinic Comeback Player of the Year.
