Todd Toriscelli
Director of Sports Medicine and Performance

Todd Toriscelli enters his 15th season with the Buccaneers in 2011 and second as director of sports medicine and performance after serving as head athletic trainer for 13 seasons. He has been a part of four division championships during his tenure as well as the Buccaneer’s first Super Bowl title, a 48-21 victory over Oakland in Super Bowl XXXVII.

Toriscelli coordinates the team’s daily medical coverage including all performance parameters such as physical development and nutrition. Toriscelli and his staff have conducted research projects on dehydration and exercise in the heat in conjunction with scientists from the Gatorade Sports Science Institute, and he recently co-authored an article in the International Journal of Sports Medicine. He has also published several other articles and lectured on topics related to sports medicine. Most recently, Toriscelli was named to the NFL Health and Safety Panel in May of 2011.

Toriscelli and his staff were instrumental in the rehabilitation and treatment of RB Carnell Williams following two career-threatening knee injuries that he suffered in 2007 and 2008.  Williams’ miraculous return to the field culminated with an impressive performance in 2009 as Williams went on to play in all 16 games for the first time in his career while leading the team with 823 rushing yards. In 2010, Williams again played in each of the 16 games.

Prior to coming to Tampa Bay, Toriscelli spent a combined seven years as a head trainer for Stanford, Miami (FL) and Kansas State universities. While with Stanford in 1995 and 1996, Toriscelli also served as the National Athletic Trainers Association’s liaison to the NCAA Football Rules Committee.

A native of Steubenville, Ohio, Toriscelli holds a bachelor’s degree in Health Education and minors in Biological Science and Athletic Training from Ohio University (1984) and a master’s degree in physical education with an emphasis on sports medicine from the University of North Carolina (1985). In 2009 he was selected as a Distinguished Alumnus by the Ohio University School of Health Sciences and Professions.

Toriscelli and his wife, Chris, reside in Tampa with their son, Shane, and daughter, Jenna.
