What did Adam Schefter say?

During the discussion, the ‘NFL Live’ crew spoke about Kelce buying an ownership stake in a racehorse named Swift Delivery before host Laura Rutledge inquired why the athlete had not purchases “an engagement ring” for his love.

Soon Schefter jumped into it by asking, "I have a question. Laura, Laura. How do you know that Travis Kelce didn't buy an engagement ring?”

She replied, “I don’t know, do you know? Are you going to break some big news here?”

But the 57-year-old sports writer did not say much as he stated, “All I did was ask a question about how Laura knew he hadn’t bought an engagement ring. That’s all I was doing.”

Rutledge then once again asked Schefter, “Are you going to break some big news here? Break news for the Swifties. We’re all waiting here.”

But he only said, “I’m just saying you said that he didn’t buy an engagement ring and I’m just wondering how you have that information?”

Booger McFarland could not resist joining the discussion as he mentioned, “The awkward silence right there speaks volumes, Schefty, do you know something, Schefty? America wants to know.”

“All I did was ask a question about how Laura knew he hadn’t bought an engagement ring. That’s all I was doing,” Schefter asserted.

However, Rutledge told Schefter, “I’m going to go back and rewatch this and analyze everything that your face does, Adam, for now, we’re going to go to some actual news.”
