Maybe some of Dan Orlovsky’s quirks are starting to rub off on his co-workers like Adam Schefter.
At the end of Thursday’s episode of Get Up, the cast made their picks for the AFC and NFC Championship Games. When it came time to reveal picks for the massive Kansas City Chiefs-Buffalo Bills showdown in the AFC, a curious question mark appeared underneath Orlovsky’s name as he didn’t want to take a stand and make a pick unlike Harry Douglas and Jason McCourty or even Mike Greenberg.
With Dan Orlovsky sitting on the fence, Adam Schefter sitting next to him began unbuttoning his dress shirt on national television to see if the former Detroit Lions quarterback had any hair on his chest.
I would advise you not to do something similar in your own workplace.

America found out that Dan Orlovsky does indeed have hair on his chest, but it is neatly trimmed and shaved. So there’s that. Maybe Schefty was really intrigued to see what was under there given the fact that we’ve already seen his bare chest on national television. It’s also a bit odd in that Schefter didn’t even make a pick himself on the game! Let ye who has actually made a pick in the game cast the first stone. At least Schefter didn’t take off one of Orlovsky’s shoes to smell it, because that’s also something that has happened before on ESPN morning television.
The best moment in this was Jason McCourty’s quip about HR investigating. You just know he didn’t have to deal with anything like this working in the NFL on CBS booth with Matt Ryan and Andrew Catalon this season.
In case you were wondering, Dan Orlovsky finally did end up picking Josh Allen and the Bills to finally overcome Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. But it was a weird journey to get there.
