There were some upsetting allegations surfacing this week regarding former Baltimore Ravens star and current ESPN analyst Shannon Sharpe. Sharpe is a defendant in a Nevada lawsuit seeking in excess of $50 million for alleged sexual abuse and domestic violence.

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 release of the alleged audio follows the release of explicit apparent exchanges between the NFL Hall of Famer and his accuser.
