It has been a really troubling last few days for Shannon Sharpe as his text messages with alleged rape victim has been released on internet.

The woman first met Sharpe at a gym in Los Angeles in 2023 when she was 20 and a nearly two-year relationship followed, according to court documents. Sharpe, 56, is accused of raping the woman in October 2024 and again in January, court documents said.

The ESPN host says the allegations of rape are false, but only today did Shannon Sharpe's lawyers reveal a $10M deal was on the table to make the whole thing go away
