ESPN's Adam Schefter will serve as on-course reporter at Travelers Championship
Adam Schefter is one of the most familiar faces in sports television, but he's going to be in a different setting this week than he's used to.
Schefty is trading the sideline for the golf course this week, as the NFL Insider for ESPN will work as a featured group commentator on ESPN+ this week at the PGA Tour's 2025 Travelers Championship. On Thursday, he'll cover Rory McIlroy and Keegan Bradley's group, which tees off at 10:30 a.m. ET.
He'll trade in the suit and tie for some golf clothes at TPC River Highlands.

"I've been assigned a PGA Tour Live shirt that they got for me, and I guess the pants and shoes are my own," Schefter said during an appearance on Unsportsmanlike. "It's supposed to be very hot on Thursday. I don't know if I can get a clothing deal here."
Schefter has covered the NFL for 16 years at ESPN, and he has also dabbled in NBA reporting after Adrian Wojnarowski retired, but this week he steps inside the ropes of a PGA Tour event.

(AP Photo/Frank Franklin II) EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers should be available to practice for the start of training camp next month after sitting out during the spring with a toe issue. Coach Brian Daboll said Wednesday that Nabers was 'doing good' and he had no concerns that the injury would affect his availability. Advertisement 'Every person's at a different part in, call it rehab if you will or prehab,' Daboll said, 'and we just did what we thought was best for Malik to try to get him as healthy as we can.' Daboll said last month during organized team activities that the Giants were simply being cautious with Nabers, who has had an issue with the toe since his college days at LSU. Daboll also said then that Nabers didn't need any procedures on his toe during the offseason. Nabers didn't practice in the sessions open to reporters during OTAs and minicamp, but participated in some of the team's walkthrough periods. 'He's had some issues, like I said, in the past, in college with it,' Daboll said. 'And again, that was the plan that we came up with for him and for our football team.' Advertisement Nabers, the sixth overall pick in the draft last year, caught an NFL rookie-record 109 passes last season while setting the franchise mark for most receptions in a season. Nabers also tied former Giants star Odell Beckham Jr. for the NFL record for fewest games needed for 100 career catches, reaching the milestone in just 14 games. Left tackle Andrew Thomas also didn't practice throughout the spring while he works his way back from surgery to repair a Lisfranc injury to his right foot that sidelined him the final 11 games. Three-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence didn't practice in team drills, but participated in individual drills during OTAs and minicamp. Third-round defensive tackle Darius Alexander and fourth-round running back Cam Skattebo also didn't practice fully in minicamp because of undisclosed injuries. 'They're progressing,' Daboll said. 'They'll do everything they can do to get ready and hopefully they'll be ready to go.' ___ AP NFL:

Ex-NFL player Ramzee Robinson sues Chiefs for wrongful termination, racial discrimination
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — A former NFL defensive back is suing the Kansas City Chiefs for wrongful termination from his job as director of player engagement after accusing the franchise of discriminating against him because he is Black. Ramzee Robinson, who spent nine years with the Chiefs, filed the lawsuit in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri on Sunday. Advertisement In the lawsuit, Robinson claims that he was called into a meeting in February and accused of attacking a female co-worker, and that Chiefs refused to show him security video of the encounter. Robinson ultimately was fired from his position, which involved locker room management, mentorship and other responsibilities within the team. The lawsuit claims that Robinson was paid a salary of $125,000 by the Chiefs, but that his research found other NFL teams paid comparable positions an average salary of $171,932, not including other benefits. It also claims that "the Chiefs paid African-American business employees less than their white counterparts.' Chiefs spokesman Brad Gee told The Associated Press on Wednesday that while he could not comment on pending legal matters, 'to be clear, the Chiefs do not tolerate discrimination of any kind." 'We look forward to the facts of this case coming to light,' Gee said. Advertisement The 41-year-old Robinson was the final player chosen in the 2007 draft by Detroit. He played in 19 games over two seasons for the Lions, then appeared in three games for Philadelphia and four for Cleveland in 2009. He never played for the Chiefs. ___ AP NFL:
