The NFL: America’s Religion Explored with Adam Schefter
Rabbi Elliot Cosgrove and Emmy Award–winning journalist Jon Frankel welcome ESPN insider Adam Schefter for a candid conversation about how football has become America’s true religion. Together they explore faith, fandom, and morality on and off the field—from the NFL’s cultural dominance to Schefter’s deeply personal journey and reflections on loss, purpose, and community. The episode closes with a moving story from former Michigan player Jeff Cohen, reminding us that conviction and competition often share the same playbook.
