Did Elijah do enough to be considered for a starting job,
even once DeMond is up here?
Yeah, he did enough to be considered.
And we'll see how DeMond does over this week physically and medically.
And then we'll make a decision here probably in a week or so,
you know, how we want to proceed.
But I certainly believe that in the six quarters he's played,
he certainly has earned consideration.
Coach, according to that, there's
so much feelings going on about the controversy there.
It's impossible not to hear it.
You've been tried to, but it's impossible not to.
How do you handle that internally?
You know, I tell everybody that every position is a competition.
And we don't have, you know, we don't sit in a spot
or sit in a world where no position is not open for competition.
And, you know, what we want to do is we want to make sure
that everybody goes out there to practice every single day
and competes like their job is on the line.
And that's what we would hope that our program can consist of
and that can become.
And right now we're in a spot where we don't have
to make any decisions.
We don't play on Saturday, and we're also coming off of a guy
that's still not fully medically cleared to go in the game.
So we're not going to make any official decisions
or we're going to let these guys practice.
Everybody's cleared to practice, full go.
And the full-go part of the practice is great
because our quarterbacks don't get hit.
And then we'll go from there.
Is DeMond going to practice full-go today?
Is DeMond able to practice?
Yeah.
