John Keim: They're not allowed to participate in any football activity with the coaches -- or someone affiliated with the club -- or in any sort of organized workout (of course, unless it's a group of players getting together away from the facility and on their own). They can work out on their own and watch film on their own, but that's about it. Coaches are on vacation, but I'd imagine that some drop by on occasion. And players are allowed to rehab at the facility.
For Paea, it was a reminder of what he could do -- and how he could take advantage of the focus paid to his linemates (Jared Allen, Willie Young and Jeremiah Ratliff).
