Shannon Sharpe’s net worth as settlement erodes his wealth

Shannon Sharpe is one of the most recognizable talking heads in sports. As a former tight end, he’s known as a TV personality and his primary coverage is football. But his sports analysis has expanded to Major League Baseball, the National Basketball Association, and the WNBA.

Unlike some sports analysts who never played professionally, Sharpe played for 14 years in the National Football League and was a three-time Super Bowl champion. His football pedigree has offered him opportunities to transition into the broadcasting booth since retiring more than 20 years ago, and his induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2011 further aided in his popularity over the years.
