Shannon Sharpe to step away from ESPN duties amid ongoing lawsuit

Shannon Sharpe to step away from ESPN duties amid ongoing lawsuit

Yahoo24-04-2025
Editor's Note: This report contains graphic descriptions of sexual acts.
Shannon Sharpe has said he will temporarily take time away from his role on ESPN after being sued for assault, sexual assault, battery and sexual battery. He denies the allegations in the lawsuit filed Sunday by an anonymous woman and her attorneys.
Sharpe plays a prominent part on ESPN's morning sports debate show 'First Take.'
'I will be devoting this time to my family, and responding and dealing with these false and disruptive allegations set against me. I plan to return to ESPN at the start of the NFL preseason,' Sharpe said in a statement issued on Thursday.
The Pro Football Hall of Famer concluded by thanking his 'family, fans, friends and colleagues' for their support.
Following Sharpe's announcement, ESPN said in a statement, 'This is a serious situation, and we agree with Shannon's decision to step away.'
Sharpe's legal representatives previously told CNN the lawsuit was an attempt to 'shake down' the popular podcaster for millions of dollars and said he 'categorically denies all allegations of coercion or misconduct.'
In the suit filed in a Las Vegas district court, 'Jane Doe' accuses the popular host of the 'Club Shay Shay' podcast of 'manipulating and controlling' the plaintiff during a nearly two-year period that started in 2023 as a consensual relationship when the woman was 20 years old.
The civil complaint alleges Sharpe, 56, 'violently sexually assaulted and anally raped Plaintiff,' in October 2024 and again in January of this year in Las Vegas, Nevada, 'blatantly ignoring her requests for him to stop.'
The suit states: 'After many months of manipulating and controlling Plaintiff — a woman more than thirty years younger than he — and repeatedly threatening to brutally choke and violently slap her, Sharpe refused to accept the answer no and raped Plaintiff, despite her sobbing and repeated screams of 'no.''
When asked if Jane Doe had contacted police during or after the alleged assaults, the plaintiffs' attorney, Tony Buzbee, said he could not comment.
The attorney told CNN, 'It takes a great deal of courage to stand up against those with power, fame and money. I look forward to pressing this case in court.'
Sharpe's attorney, Lanny J. Davis, said the woman is attempting to blackmail his client and that the pair's relationship was consensual and 'sexual in nature — and, in many cases, initiated by her with specific and graphic requests.'
Davis said Sharpe 'looks forward to vindication through due process and a judgment based on the facts and the law.'
The complaint is seeking compensatory and punitive damages of more than $50 million.
The Pro Football Hall of Famer was inducted as part of the Class of 2011. He was drafted by the Denver Broncos in 1990 and retired following the 2003 season as the NFL's all-time leader in catches, yards and touchdowns by a tight end.
Sharpe won two Super Bowls with Denver and then another while a member of the Baltimore Ravens.

Your views on Shedeur Sanders

Catch up on live reaction and insight from Saturday's busy NFL preseason slate Getty Images In a highly anticipated professional debut in Carolina, Shedeur Sanders balled out. Sure, it's only preseason, but if his debut had gone differently, would the same sentiment apply? Just food for thought ... Here are your views on the Browns' rookie QB, who won't play today: Dust Y: I'll hold off on crowning anyone until the games actually count, and the quarterback is playing against elite talent, and the defensive coordinator is actually calling complicated schemes young quarterbacks have never seen in live action…. I'll hold off on crowning anyone until the games actually count, and the quarterback is playing against elite talent, and the defensive coordinator is actually calling complicated schemes young quarterbacks have never seen in live action…. Craig W.: It's just preseason. Vanilla defense with backups. People are anointing him as though he played the #1 defense in the NFL with all their starters and complex schemes It's just preseason. Vanilla defense with backups. People are anointing him as though he played the #1 defense in the NFL with all their starters and complex schemes Jason C.: Shedeur has handled himself extremely well, says the right things, and shows a humbleness and willingness to work hard and be patient - die-hard fan here been living in the darkness for far too long - the Carolina game was fun and offered some hope. Go Browns! Shedeur has handled himself extremely well, says the right things, and shows a humbleness and willingness to work hard and be patient - die-hard fan here been living in the darkness for far too long - the Carolina game was fun and offered some hope. Go Browns! Julie W.: Good night for Shedeur. Bad night for the haters. Good night for Shedeur. Bad night for the haters. Bo E.: Carolina's first team defensive starters were in for most of the first quarter while Cleveland was playing its second and third string offensive linemen and backs/receivers. When it was 2s and 3s vs. 2s and 3s - Sanders dominated. Carolina's first team defensive starters were in for most of the first quarter while Cleveland was playing its second and third string offensive linemen and backs/receivers. When it was 2s and 3s vs. 2s and 3s - Sanders dominated. Spencer M.: I do not understand all the hatred for this young man. He never complained about his fall in the draft or the fact that he went to the worst organization in football ( a QB graveyard). He's worked his tail off and had a good showing, throwing two TDs into tight windows. The haters criticize the level of competition as a way to demean Sanders. Despite what it may have looked like early, Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders said he didn't feel any extra nerves ahead of his professional debut last Friday night. His first pass sailed high, and the Browns' first three series produced more misses than hits. But a Carolina Panthers turnover led to a well-placed 7-yard touchdown pass from Sanders to Kaden Davis on the first play of the second quarter. Late in the first half, Sanders finished an efficient drive with an even better touchdown toss than his first, again to Davis, this one from 12 yards out. In all, Sanders piloted the Browns for 10 series. Three of them ended in touchdowns. The fourth player in the training camp quarterback order was sharp throughout his 45 plays. Neither Sanders nor Browns coach Kevin Stefanski would address what Sanders' performance might mean for Cleveland's quarterback order after the game, but both seemed rightfully pleased. 💬 'I felt like me out there,' Sanders said. Read more below. GO FURTHER Browns' Shedeur Sanders throws 2 TDs, leads 3 scoring drives in preseason debut We want to hear from you! Can the 49ers and Cowboys rebound after rough 2024 campaigns?

Getty Images Facing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 1 of the preseason, Cam Ward looked poised in his first taste of NFL action, completing 5-of-8 passes for 67 yards. He showed a nice rapport with Calvin Ridley, who caught three passes for 50 yards, and led a touchdown drive, capped by a Tony Pollard rushing score. Last night, he followed that up with a more uneven performance against the Atlanta Falcons. Ward played three series, completing 2-of-7 passes for 42 yards. His first throw of the night was his best one, connecting with Elic Ayomanor for a gain of 35 yards.

Bills' former QB has moved on from NFL to sell insurance

Bills' former QB has moved on from NFL to sell insurance originally appeared on The Sporting News It can be hard for NFL players to transition into the "real world" after their football careers end. But one former quarterback is taking his best shot at it. Jake Fromm is now a client advisor at an insurance brokerage in the Atlanta area. MORE: Shedeur Sanders shows his NFL Draft slide might've been a mistake Fromm was a collegiate standout at the University of Georgia. The Buffalo Bills drafted him in the fifth round of the 2020 NFL Draft. He bounced between the active roster and the practice squad in Buffalo for most of his first two seasons. In December 2021, the New York Giants claimed Fromm off the Bills' practice squad. Fromm's only NFL appearance in the regular season came that month for the Giants. By October 2022, the Washington Commanders had added Fromm to their practice squad. He bounced up and down in Washington through the end of the 2023 season. In May 2024, Washington released Fromm and he signed with the Lions. Fromm spent the 2024 season on Detroit's practice squad. MORE: Taylor Swift is coming on Travis Kelce's podcast The Lions released Fromm on April 23 of this year, and he's now a free agent. Fromm, who is 27 years old, hasn't announced a retirement or anything. He would likely welcome another NFL opportunity if it came. But for now, he's working on the next steps of his life, which is a quality way to approach things. If you need some insurance advising in the Atlanta area, Fromm may be your guy.
