Do they stand around in the heat?

I guess what I'm really asking is do they follow every drill of their respective position? During two-a-days was say, Ryan Reynolds standing behing Coach Venebles.

If not to that extent what is it? Anybody know? TIA

They do whatever they're medically cleared to do.

Like, say, a guy with an ACL will ride a stationary bike during conditioning drills, will attend position and team meetings, and will at least observe position drills and scrimmages.

edit: Mike Rich, you bastard. I gotta be quicker in my responses.

Just depends on the type and severity of the injury.

If they can, usually they're usually on a stationary bike or working with Coach Schmidt during practice. Always trying to keep in shape as much as possible and rehab.

I guarantee they're always in team meetings and film rooms though.

Thats good stuff. I wondered without that type of involvment just what sort of effect their appearance on the sidelines during the games would be.
