In an effort to cover all 32 NFL training camps in a span of 19 days, ESPN is sending out its “insiders” Chris Mortensen and Adam Schefter on bus trips. Mortensen will start from Cowboys training camp and concentrate on the camps out West. Schefter begins at the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio and will focus on the camps in the East. Both men will appear every day on SportsCenter. On the last day, the two will meet up at the defending Super Bowl Champions New Orleans Saints camp.
The press release goes into detail and where each of them will hit over the 19 day span.
ESPN’s Mortensen and Schefter “On the Road to Camp”: July 29- Aug. 16Live Reports from all 32 NFL Training Camps in 19 DaysESPN senior NFL analyst Chris Mortensen and NFL Insider Adam Schefter will depart on separate road trips later this month as part of ESPN’s “On the Road to Camp” – a cross-country bus tour that will take the ESPN duo to all 32 NFL team training camps in 19 days, July 29 – Aug. 16. Mortensen will begin his journey from Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, site of Super Bowl XLV, and concentrate on teams in the West, while Schefter will depart the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio, and focus on the East.Mortensen and Schefter will log more than 15,000 miles combined before both of their buses meet in New Orleans at the end of the tour on Aug. 16 at the home of the defending Super Bowl champion Saints.“On the Road to Camp” coverage will include daily appearances by Mortensen and Schefter on SportsCenter and NFL Live, as well as Monday Night Countdown (before ESPN’s Monday Night Football preseason games on Aug. 12 and 16); reports on ESPN Radio’s Mike & Mike in the Morning (simulcast on ESPN2); blog items, video, interactive maps and daily post cards on ESPN.com; and regular updates on Twitter (@mortreport and @Adam_Schefter).“It’s a post-card of America that Adam and I can share, some of it very unpredictable. How did I know I was going to end up in a Wisconsin cheese factory last year during my visit with the Packers….and make a fool out of myself?,” said Mortensen. “Maybe, just maybe, I’ll average four hours of sleep a night. But as Colts’ great assistant coach Tom Moore once told me at 5:15 in the morning, `Mort, you gotta love it!’ And we do.”
“The race – and coverage – is on,” added Schefter. “Mort’s doing the West Coast, I’m doing the East Coast and even Roger Goodell is taking his own trip. Whomever smells worst at the end wins.”
