Explanation:

• Reminding Elias about concussion dangers and past injury (missed games) is relevant as Julian is focused on safety. These points directly relate to the importance of safety in football.
• Joining in excitement to hype Elias up doesn't focus on safety.
• Ignoring Elias while gathering gear doesn't address the safety concern Elias's statement poses.
• Changing the subject also doesn't deal with the safety - related issue at hand.

Answer:

remind Elias about the dangers of concussions and the consequences of serious injury, remind Elias how he missed games last year and did not like the way he felt being on the sidelines
