Women’s soccer players are one of the most susceptible groups to tear their ACLs, and they (mostly) play on grass. I would be doing an entire training program/regimen audit before banning turf fields in the NFL.

The guy squirting water into Zach Ertz’s mouth is Joe O’Pella. He’s an athletic trainer that’s been with the team for over 15 years at this point. NFL teams don’t really have water boys, athletic trainers are usually the ones responsible for having water on the practice field
