Jordan Schultz Breaks Silence On His NFL Combine Incident With Ian Rapoport

The big combine news last week was FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport exchanging words in a hotel Starbucks. The two delivered conflicting reports about the Matthew Stafford situation, and according to ProFootballTalk's Mike Florio, Schultz "accosted" Rapoport...

“It really isn’t anything too much. Ian Rapoport and I had a verbal confrontation. It lasted a little over a minute. Multiple agents and reporters were nearby. Rapoport was the one who called security shortly after, but it never escalated further," Schultz told Florio.

Schultz added to that statement in a recent interview with Leila Rahimi on the "670 The Score" show, saying that he didn't appreciate the way Rapoport talked about him. He wanted to get everything off his chest.

"What happened between Ian and I probably had been brewing for quite some time. I just felt like I needed to say what I said and make it clear that I didn’t appreciate the way he was talking about me. I felt I did that," Schultz told Rahimi. "Obviously, you saw the photo. I don’t think the photo was particularly intimidating. Regardless of how you view it, I just felt like it was an important thing to say, important to get off my chest."
