Retired Super Bowl Champion Malik Jackson Partners with BRAIN.ONE to Advance Mental Health and Brain Optimization in Athletes

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- BRAIN.ONE, the AI-powered brain fitness platform revolutionizing mental health and human performance, today announced a strategic partnership with Super Bowl Champion, entrepreneur, and mental health advocate Malik Jackson. Jackson joins as an official ambassador and partner, working closely with the company to develop a protocol specifically designed to support brain function and recovery for athletes experiencing the effects of traumatic brain injuries (TBI).

Positioned at the intersection of enterprise SaaS, applied AI, and precision health, BRAIN.ONE delivers a microhabit-driven platform that converts biometric data and validated psychological assessments into personalized brain optimization protocols. These 12-week programs are deployed via the company's B2B model, targeting professional athletes, performance clinics, and longevity-focused practitioners.

"BRAIN.ONE is at the cutting edge of health technology," said Malik Jackson. "I've partnered with BRAIN.ONE to help all athletes get the most out of themselves, whether they are just beginning their careers, repairing damage, or simply want to enhance their mental acuity. After retiring from 10 years in the NFL, I wanted to make sure my mind was as healthy as my body. Partnering with BRAIN.ONE has allowed me to create a unique plan that is tailored to me and through my protocol, it can be tailored to other athletes."

Jackson's involvement will center on building a clinically informed mental health protocol tailored for athletes recovering from brain injuries. The protocol will focus on cognitive resilience, emotional regulation, and long-term neurological health. The protocol will live on BRAIN.ONE's platform and leverage its AI-powered architecture to deliver dynamic, real-time recommendations based on each user's biometric and behavioral data.

"Partnering with The Care League and Malik Jackson allows us to bring BRAIN.ONE's science-based brain and mental health protocols to a group of extraordinary former NFL athletes who have given so much to the game. Together, we're advancing research into TBI recovery and cognitive resilience—turning data and protocols into real-world hope and measurable outcomes." — Thoryn Stephens, Founder & CEO, BRAIN.ONE

BRAIN.ONE is working with forward-thinking partners, including SportsIQ, a longevity and recovery-focused health center based at the Four Seasons Westlake Village. Its proprietary system uses multichannel content automation and biometric-informed protocol generation to deliver scalable, evidence-based interventions at the individual level. It has also developed the largest known database of brain and health protocols.

"I saw a white space in the market for a science-backed brain and nervous system information resource. The idea formulated into BRAIN.ONE training for the Malibu Triathlon in the Fall of 2023. While preparing for the race, I recognized the need for a structured, science-backed protocol system to optimize brain and nervous system function. Athletes, executives, and everyday individuals benefit from peak cognitive performance, yet there wasn't a comprehensive, data-driven platform combining neuroscience, performance tracking, and functional health insights. That's when we decided to build BRAIN.ONE into the largest database for peer-reviewed health programs, protocols, and microhabits."

BRAIN.ONE has demonstrated remarkable traction and execution by applying fractional leadership and targeted AI development to one of the fastest-growing sectors in health tech.
