Adam Schefter, Mike Florio Engage in Twitter Beef Over Ravens Report

NFL insiders are far and few between. We simply lack many reputable sources for reliable NFL news on Twitter. Two of the most trustworthy members of that small community are Adam Schefter and Mike Florio, it gets concerning when they end up beefing over reports. We saw that just this week when things got a bit testy over a report about the Baltimore Ravens.

The two NFL behemoths disagreed over a news item when Schefter reported that Baltimore Ravens coach John Harbaugh told the team that the Ravens facilities are closed until Monday, following Lamar Jackson positive COVID-19 test.

Ravens players were told today by their HC John Harbaugh that, for everyone’s safety, they will not be allowed back in the training facility until Monday at the earliest, sources tell ESPN.

Ravens are scheduled to play Steelers on Sunday, so that game doesn’t seem possible.

Mike Florio refuted Adam Schefter’s tweet by claiming his source had told him it was too early for the Ravens to shut down their facilities.

Per source, ESPN report that John Harbaugh has told players they will not return to facility until Monday is premature at best, incorrect at worst. Decisions have not yet been made.

Schefter responded to his report:

Ravens’ HC John Harbaugh just confirmed to ESPN that he told the team tonight that players will not be allowed to go into the training facility until Monday at the earliest. https://t.co/HESwy2Y5Op

And Florio then returned fire:

Let’s try this another way. Per source, this isn’t Harbaugh’s call to make. Decisions have not yet been made. https://t.co/6LV5OJci2k
