Shannon Sharpe’s time at ESPN has come to an abrupt end. Just two weeks after settling a $50 million civil lawsuit filed by his ex-girlfriend accusing him of rape and abusive behavior, ESPN has cut ties with the Pro Football Hall of Famer and former “First Take” analyst, according to multiple reports confirmed by The Athletic’s Andrew Marchand.

Hall of Fame tight end-turned-broadcaster Shannon Sharpe will not return to ESPN, a person with knowledge of the decision told The AP.

The former NFL star and media personality hadn't appeared on the sports network since a Jane Doe accuser sued him in April. He denied the allegations.
