The streets of Twitter are on fire after a new report claims Shannon Sharpe has reached a contract buyout agreement with Fox Sports to end his 7-year run on “Skip and Shannon: Undisputed.”
Ryan Glasspiegel of the New York Post broke the story on Wednesday (May 31).
According to the report, the Pro Football Hall of Famer’s final show is expected to be after the NBA Finals wrap up in June.
Upon his exit from “Undisputed,” Shannon Sharpe will reportedly take his popular “Club Shay Shay” podcast with him.
The Beginning Of The End
Let’s be honest…the reports of Shannon’s alleged departure don’t really come as a surprise…do they?
Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless’ relationship was dissolving faster than a Listerine strip and took major hits after Skip’s Damar Hamlin tweets and his disrespectful remarks to Shannon regarding Tom Brady.
You may recall that Shannon took to Instagram in January to send up the Bat Signal.
He shared a text he received from his brother that praised him for the man he’s become.
The caption on the post read:
My Bro just sent this to me. He doesn’t show or share a lot emotions with me.
Over last month he’s sent me more text messages and voice messages than ever.
He sees the little boy that he helped raise that was quick tempered and ready fight become what every person he mentioned, saw in me and wanted me to become.
GOD has a plan for SHAY and NO ONE CAN STOP IT. 2023 THE YR OF SHAY. #Sitbackandwatach
