Pro Football Hall of Famer and media personality Shannon Sharpe is facing a lawsuit, accused of sexual assault and battery, and engaging in the intentional infliction of emotional distress.

Hall of Fame football great Shannon Sharpe on Tuesday demanded that a 10-minute-long "sex tape" of himself be publicly disclosed, insisting he's the target of a "shakedown" by a woman accusing him of rape in a civil lawsuit.

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.
