Adam Schefter has covered the NFL since 1990 and is regarded as one of the top reporters in the industry, especially when it comes to breaking news. He joined ESPN in 2009 as a sportswriter and NFL analyst appearing on a variety of programs, including “NFL Insiders,” “NFL Live,” “Sunday NFL Countdown,” “Monday Night Countdown,” and “SportsCenter.” Named "the most influential New Yorker on Twitter,” Adam has acquired a remarkable 8+ million followers. Sports Illustrated’s NFL site, “The MMQB,” also named him the “2014 Media Person of the Year” for breaking multiple significant stories during the NFL’s free-agent period and offseason.

Adam’s influence extends well beyond sports news. The native New Yorker is a father, husband, and staunch supporter of T1D advocacy, lending his support to several Type 1 Diabetes awareness and fundraising initiatives including Children’s Congress, National Diabetes Awareness Month, and the New York JDRF Chapter’s annual Promise Ball Gala.
