Football coaches are taking steps to protect players from extreme heat. Practices and game schedules have been adjusted to minimize exposure to high temperatures. Coaches are prioritizing player safety by providing extra water and ice. Some teams are starting activities indoors, such as film sessions and stretches, to reduce time spent in the heat.

Games are still being played, although some have been delayed. One Friday night game started 30 minutes late to help players cope with the heat. Coaches are finding ways to adapt to the challenging conditions.
