It's a little early to say. I don't want to push it. She's had so many things going on,

" Wiegman said of Mead.

"We'll see how her rehabilitation goes, then we'll look at the future. I don't want her to look too far forward right now because of her situation.

"She had of course other private issues. I left the knee situation until now as I just wanted her to be okay and get settled with the situation and sadness she had around her.
