More Philly sports media news:
I wanted to share some news with everyone:
Today is my last day at The Athletic.
This was my decision, to be clear. I’m so grateful to The Athletic for giving me my first chance to cover the Flyers full-time, & I’m incredibly proud to have been part of TA for 6 great years.

As for me, I’ll be embarking on a new opportunity, & I’ll provide more details in the coming days/weeks. For now, I’ll say that I’m not leaving Philly — & there’s a reason why I’ve been tweeting this week about looking forward to covering the Flyers this season.
So stay tuned!

Charlie is also staying in Philly, but with a different outlet. You sense a pattern here? I can’t believe this story hasn’t come out yet. Maybe we’ll break it today.
(Charlie did a very good job at The Athletic. Very detailed, comprehensive Flyers coverage.)
