![]() O’Brien included the information that Schefter has invested in Boom Entertainment, a maker of sports and casino apps that’s developing “real money gambling products.” And the larger issue there isn’t that Schefter’s investing in a gambling company, but that one of the other investors is Robert Kraft, the owner of the New England Patriots. Also on Thursday, a Bloomberg piece from Timothy L. ![]() This is not the only thing that Schefter has been under fire for. To Schefter’s credit, he hedged more when discussing this on air on NFL Live, saying “But there’s a real chance it was not related to his hip soreness that he missed practice today.” But that further reinforces the problem with his initial tweet, which did not include that information it put fact A and fact B out there, leading to many people concluding that A+B=C. And this is also notable for how it led to ESPN studio show NFL Live putting up a graphic combining the hip/flip comments and the practice absence. But with this particular player and this flip that was already drawing criticism, the implied link of the flip and Jackson’s absence wasn’t great from Schefter, especially with him not addressing the new information until long after it emerged, and not doing so in anything linked to his first post. Ravens’ QB Lamar Jackson missed practice today with an illness, per the team’s injury report.Īgain, this isn’t necessarily the biggest deal in the world, and with a whole lot of players, it really wouldn’t have made much of a difference. ET (and not in a reply to his initial tweet, so the initial tweet continued to be seen by many people without the later context, and continued to lead people to jump to the “Jackson missed practice because of hip soreness” conclusion): Eastern, Schefter didn’t relay that until 4:20 p.m. And while the Ravens’ reporters got the stomach bug info out there before 4 p.m. And while Schefter didn’t directly say “Jackson missed practice because of hip soreness,” he presented A+B in the same tweet, leading many people to jump to C. But there’s quite a difference in him missing practice due to a stomach issue and missing practice due to hip soreness when it comes to the criticism of his flip. And Jackson probably wouldn’t have missed Sunday’s game from hip soreness either. So it doesn’t seem like Jackson will miss Sunday’s game. Henley then used “all fine” for the source’s comments in an story on this. He is fine for Sunday's game at the Detroit Lions, a source said.
