NFL insider Adam Schefter produced receipts after a fellow reporter attempted to discredit his reporting on Ohio State wide receiver Carnell Tate. On Wednesday, Mike Florio wrote that Schefter’s report on Tate running the 40-yard dash in 4.45-4.47 seconds drew criticism, with fans claiming he was simply repeating information provided by Tate’s agent.

Florio added fuel to the criticism, suggesting Schefter likely acted on behalf of Tate’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus.

“Did Schefter canvass multiple teams for their numbers, or did he simply copy and paste a text from Rosenhaus? Given the way the insider sausage gets made, the far safer bet is the latter,” he wrote.

Schefter did not take those comments lightly and responded with a series of screenshots aimed directly at Florio.

“Just to prove you’re wrong, again,” the ESPN reporter said.

Adam Schefter’s screenshots showed that several scouts had Tate completing the combine’s most prominent drill in under 4.52 seconds.

Carnell Tate made headlines over the weekend as one of several Ohio State players who impressed at the combine, alongside Sonny Styles, Caleb Downs and Arvell Reese.

Tate named the quarterbacks he would like to play with in the NFL.

“At the next level, I’d like to play, catch passes from like Pat Mahomes, Tyler Shough, Josh Allen, Jayden Daniels. So, all the great quarterbacks,” Tate said.

The New Orleans Saints and the Kansas City Chiefs were among the teams he spent “extensive time” with during the combine.

Adam Schefter once clashed with Ian Rapoport over a John Harbaugh report

Before clashing with Mike Florio, Adam Schefter was involved in a similar, though less heated, situation with another NFL insider.

After Ian Rapoport reported that John Harbaugh had lost the Baltimore Ravens’ locker room, Schefter dismissed the claim as inaccurate.

“I don’t think that information right there could be any less true,” Schefter said. “The players were coming to his office crying, hugging him, sending him goodbyes, calling him one by one.”

The two may now work together following ESPN’s merger with NFL Network.
