1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 1: A coach, good coach. Uh, you've had some issues and

2
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:09,000
Speaker 1: opis called on you, but those crossing routes the last

3
00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:12,079
Speaker 1: three or four games, Um, what's the issue is? Is

4
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 1: it it's just a matter of selling your blows? Is

5
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:18,000
Speaker 1: it technique wise? What seems to be an issued yet? Well,

6
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 1: it's something we've got to clean up, you know, as

7
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:22,040
Speaker 1: a group, as a whole. I mean, each one's got

8
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:23,920
Speaker 1: his own individual issues. We've got to make sure we're

9
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:25,840
Speaker 1: cleaner on that and not putting ourselves in positions for

10
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 1: the officials to make penalties. Uh. So we've gotta keep

11
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:30,640
Speaker 1: on moving and in the right way, make sure we

12
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,360
Speaker 1: don't do it the wrong way. Coach, just to follow up,

13
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: but you saw that ingram flag last week. Did you

14
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 1: agree with that flag or did you kind of like

15
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 1: have to grab ingram and clean that up a little bit? Well,

16
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter whether we agree with it or not.

17
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,600
Speaker 1: It was a penalty. So we talked all of our

18
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 1: players about what happened, why it was called, and what

19
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:49,199
Speaker 1: we have to do differently to make sure we don't

20
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 1: put anybody in position to have a penalty called on them.

21
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 1: Thank you. So, how did how did you think Golden

22
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 1: handled the situation last week once you guys had that

23
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: conversation and and you came to the decisions that you did. Um,

24
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,119
Speaker 1: you know, he was in a different role obviously, Uh

25
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:11,040
Speaker 1: during the weekend. Yeah, Look, we're kind of past that

26
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: issue right now. Tom. We're you know, getting ready to

27
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,479
Speaker 1: play Philly right now. Golden's getting ready to play Philly

28
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,320
Speaker 1: as well. Right now. I love the way keen of

29
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 1: practice yesterday. I love the ways preparing so far. Today

30
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 1: we're gonna be on the field today, will be over

31
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 1: in the stadium. They would be good opportunity for the

32
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: entire team to work on the turf for a day

33
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 1: today and get moving forward with it. But look, we're

34
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 1: totally past the whole, you know, situation last week. It

35
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: is what it is looking forward to getting gold on

36
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 1: field with us when we're rolling fast. How's Freeman doing?

37
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,040
Speaker 1: And uh, where's your running back rotation at now? With

38
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 1: the way Wayne's performed, and even if he does come back, Yeah,

39
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: in terms of the rotation part, at first, it's look,

40
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: whoever's at the game, we're gonna look to use. And

41
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: I think right now Burton is doing a good job

42
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: just mixing those guys in throughout the game and kind

43
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: of keeping them fresh. Jordan's so, you know, we discussed

44
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,120
Speaker 1: obviously keeping everybody involved before the game and as we

45
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 1: get into the game. You know, Burton does a good

46
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 1: job of knowing, you know, where everybody is individually and

47
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 1: keeping everyone involved. You know, DeVante moved around yesterday. He

48
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:09,799
Speaker 1: looks like he's getting better along the way. Today's the

49
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: first day we'll get to see him really moving full

50
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: speed Jordan, so we'll get a much better look at

51
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 1: him today in terms of how he looks um but

52
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 1: he's definitely making progress. He's working hard on everything. The

53
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,079
Speaker 1: trainers and the coach that asked him right there, so

54
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: he's fighting hard to get back. I feel like I

55
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: asked since every few weeks, but and Wyne sort of

56
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 1: urged himself more opportunities. I think every player on the

57
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 1: team earned some self opportunities with the way they play.

58
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,639
Speaker 1: I think right now, Wayne's doing a good job of

59
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 1: being productive for us as a team. He's made a

60
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: lot of improvement without the year. We have a lot

61
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,679
Speaker 1: of confidence in Wayne. He's done a good job in

62
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,359
Speaker 1: the run in the past game. I see improvements with

63
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 1: him in term of his past protection I've seen improvements

64
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 1: of him really running downhill and getting into space and

65
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,359
Speaker 1: be able to make sure he extends drives right there.

66
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: So look, I'm pleased with the way Wayne's playing on

67
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: please without Alfred's playing. Davante is playing a Dion's plan.

68
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 1: You know, these guys have all done a good job

69
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:57,239
Speaker 1: changed up and we handed the ball off to whether

70
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 1: it's a receiver or Evan or some different combinations we've had,

71
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 1: those guys have all ran the ball hard for so

72
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:02,799
Speaker 1: I'm pleased with the way all of our guys in

73
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 1: the wrong game are playing. Leonard. Hey, Joe, you might

74
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: not be thinking about this right now, but I was

75
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 1: just curious. With the bye week coming up, teams can't

76
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,519
Speaker 1: leave for their bye weeks now because of the protocol.

77
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 1: So you know, do you can you bring people's families

78
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: in so they can see their families or like fly

79
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: them in here, or do you have certain things organized

80
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: for guys to keep everything kind of contained, or do

81
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 1: you have to let them go? You know, how does

82
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 1: that all worthy? Well, everyone has to test every day,

83
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 1: So in terms of trying to keep them around here,

84
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: we're going to give them off next week Thursday Friday,

85
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 1: Saturday Sunday. I mean, that's gonna be done for the

86
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 1: players already. You know, we can make it available for

87
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 1: the players that their families come in to come in

88
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 1: and get tested and make sure they're in the right position.

89
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 1: I've talked to a couple of our guys already. I'm

90
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: not gonna specifically as who that are looking to bring

91
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 1: their families up. We just want to make sure that

92
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 1: everyone has what they need on the front end. Maybe

93
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: get their families up here a little bit early, uh,

94
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: the opportunity, get them tested, to make sure everyone's in

95
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: kind of same situation of knowing where we've been, you know.

96
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 1: That being said, I think it just comes down to

97
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 1: we all have to be very you know, conscious of

98
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 1: what we do in a few in those few days

99
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: off and make the right decisions on where we go

100
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 1: and who were around, you know, And that's that's easier

101
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: said than done. Look, I can tell you personally from

102
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 1: my standpoint, I've got a I got a ninth graders

103
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:17,359
Speaker 1: in high school. He's going to high school right now

104
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: with kids from all over New York, New Jersey, some

105
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 1: parts of Pennsylvania going to his high school. So it's

106
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:24,280
Speaker 1: a deal, right, there where. You know, I've got to

107
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 1: remind him on a daily basis too, of like, hey, look, dude,

108
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: like you've got to make sure you wear your mask.

109
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: You know, there's been a lot of weekends where you know,

110
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 1: I haven't been able to let him just go out

111
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 1: and hang out at parties or walk the streets of

112
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: some of the towns and hang out, because to be

113
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: honest with you, we've got to be conscious of if

114
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: I let him do that, what am I bringing back

115
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: into my house? What mavering back the team? So it's tough,

116
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: you know, there's tough effects that has on everyone's individual families.

117
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: A lot of sacrifices people are making, uh they go

118
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 1: very unnoticed, but like our players, families are making a

119
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 1: tremendous sacrifice as well. You know, you've got players that

120
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: haven't seen our wives or kids for some time now.

121
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 1: And whereas it's a normal year, they may flat for

122
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 1: the game weekend, see the aim. Obviously that's not the case.

123
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 1: In a normal year, with a normal bye week, they

124
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 1: would go home, see some family, you know, kind of

125
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: get a mental reset before coming back up. That's not

126
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,040
Speaker 1: the case either. So we've got to do the best

127
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 1: job we can for the players of letting them have

128
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,720
Speaker 1: some mental downtime on the back end of next week.

129
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 1: All right, that's something we have to do to kind

130
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 1: of let them refresh and go through. We've been pushing

131
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 1: these guys hard for some time. We're gonna push them

132
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: hard again today and tomorrow, and we get in the

133
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: next week. You know, we'll figure out what's best for

134
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: the team based on you know, how this weekend goes

135
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 1: in terms of practice versus walk through with the health

136
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 1: of the team and all that stuff. But at the

137
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 1: same time, we've got to let these guys have a

138
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,359
Speaker 1: little bit of time. And four days in the season

139
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:37,960
Speaker 1: now seems like a month, I'll tell you right now.

140
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 1: So you get four straight days of coach or a player,

141
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 1: it's kind of you come back and everyone's a little

142
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 1: bit rusty too, to be honest with you. It's it's

143
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: amazing how fast you can forget basic things when you

144
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 1: can go ahead and shut your mind off for a minute. Um.

145
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 1: But we have to give them the opportunity to kind

146
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,280
Speaker 1: of mentally reset and hopefully they do have the opportunities

147
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,599
Speaker 1: to see family or see friends. Just want to make

148
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,359
Speaker 1: sure that they do it safely. By knowing where everyone's

149
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: been and make sure everybody's you know, been tested. If

150
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 1: that's an opportunity, thanks, Let's say two more Art dougn

151
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 1: Hey Joe with Matt Party's obviously played both sides and

152
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:12,040
Speaker 1: and that's a good thing for you. It's good for

153
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:13,720
Speaker 1: him to get on the field. But when you look

154
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,799
Speaker 1: at him, you obviously want him to I'm sure settling

155
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 1: in one spot eventually is his skill set better suited

156
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 1: for laugh or right or that determination? No, we have

157
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 1: made the determination right now. We're just pleased with how

158
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 1: he's playing on both sides and it's definitely been a

159
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 1: strength force. And because we're work into the guards as well,

160
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: we're gonna start moving different guys on different sides. And

161
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,599
Speaker 1: that may be new for a couple of guys Shane

162
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: Will and those guys who haven't typically played on the

163
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: right at different times, but we've practiced it that way,

164
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 1: we'll continue to practice it and play it. I talked

165
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,040
Speaker 1: in training camp a lot about that in terms of,

166
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: you know, practicing all the alignment on both sides and

167
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 1: building in their flexibility and versatility. So you know, you

168
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 1: kind of talk initially of why that's important. I think

169
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: we're seeing right now, how that's important to the team

170
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: to give us the opportunity in games of playing different

171
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,479
Speaker 1: guys on both sides. So you know, we're not looking

172
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: to play musical chairs just to confuse everybody. We're just

173
00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,559
Speaker 1: looking to make sure that we keep building our team's

174
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:01,600
Speaker 1: depth and get over an opportunity get on the field

175
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: and contribute. Thank sure. So here Art, Hey, Joe, I

176
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 1: know you're obviously gonna get really a first chance to

177
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 1: see Will back out there in pads, presumably today. I'm

178
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: just curious how do you handle that over the next

179
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: couple of days. I mean, I know it's it's I

180
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 1: assume great to have him back in the mix, But

181
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: does the medical team kind of have to handle his

182
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 1: situation differently than maybe you would a different type of injury,

183
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 1: And from your perspective, you know, how do you how

184
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 1: you handle that? Yeah, I as a coach, to be

185
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: honest with you, I rely on the medical team right here,

186
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 1: when they give us the thumbs up and say he

187
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: can do X y Z and practice, we put him

188
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 1: through X y Z. If they say he can't do something,

189
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: we don't ask him to do that right there. Um,

190
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: you know, right now, we're going to practice. We'll be

191
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 1: in pads today. Uh so it'll give everyone a chance

192
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 1: to kind of pop and get some contact and move

193
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 1: around with the weight on him. You know, we'll look good.

194
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: Yesterday it was only a walk through. We always typically

195
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 1: get a little bit of bounce and walk through. It's

196
00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: a little bit more in the walk it's more of

197
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 1: a job to stry and however you want to phrase

198
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 1: that right there? Um, but we'll look good. Yes, they're

199
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 1: moving around. Um. Now that being said, there's a difference

200
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 1: and move around to walk through than it is going

201
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: through a practice of a high intensity. So we'll get

202
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 1: a chance to see him today and obviously our guys

203
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: will have their eyes on him to see how he

204
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: progresses throughout the day and then also how it recovers tomorrow.

205
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: There's a lot more things that can play than just

206
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: you know the whatever I say, the lungs and things

207
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: like that nature from this, you know, virus. It's also

208
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: just two weeks of not playing ball. What's the muscle fatigue,

209
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 1: the muscle swords, like, how's his body recovering? Just more

210
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 1: of the athletics stuff that comes with it. So we've

211
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 1: gotta take a look at Will and make sure we're

212
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,440
Speaker 1: doing the right thing by him, and ultimately that would

213
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 1: be the right thing by the team. You mentioned earlier

214
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 1: this week, how you you are aware and conscious of

215
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: the by coming up next week? Is his also? Is

216
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 1: his situation also factor into that timeline and how much

217
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,679
Speaker 1: you push over the next couple of days knowing that

218
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 1: you do have you know that on the back end,

219
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: we haven't really factored that in for his specific situation

220
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,199
Speaker 1: and Will. To me, it's more of just where is

221
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 1: he individually, you know, in a physical nature right now.

222
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 1: It's a little bit different than the other guys coming

223
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 1: off possibly starting a clock on I R or whatever

224
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,199
Speaker 1: that may be. It's a little bit different in that

225
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 1: realm because you're not battling the twenty one day thing

226
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 1: with Will, and he's back, he's on the active roster,

227
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 1: he's back into practice with the team. To me, it's

228
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,199
Speaker 1: just making sure that any player you put on the

229
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 1: team can physically perform and defend themselves out there in action.
