Sharpe settled the lawsuit with an OnlyFans model known as Jane Doe, who accused him of rape in late 2024 and early 2025. Though Sharpe denied the allegations and called the case a “shakedown,” the lawsuit was dismissed last week after a confidential settlement.

In a new statement, the woman who accused Shannon Sharpe of sexual assault announced her retirement from OnlyFans.

During an episode of his podcast, "Nightcap," Shannon Sharpe, 57, broke his silence on his firing and revealed that he had asked the sports network to delay their announcement for a specific reason.
