Social media raised concerns about Shannon Sharpe hug of his daughter in ‘Undisputed’ behind-the-scenes video from his final day with the video viral
Shannon Sharpe, an NFL Hall of Famer who appeared on Undisputed this past Tuesday, is no longer a part of the show. The former professional tight end was said to be leaving his position at the conclusion of the NBA season. Unc showed into work looking pretty snazzy in anticipation of what would be his final episode, and sure enough, the Denver Nuggets defeated the Miami Heat to win the championship on Monday night.
Shannon Sharpe called out for inappropriately hugging his daughter Kaley while leaving Undisputed, video goes viral
The 54-year-old’s emotions were on full show as he would sob as he thanked co-host Skip Bayless, going about his business as usual. In a subsequent behind-the-scenes film, the three-time Super Bowl champion is shown arriving at FOX, getting ready, performing his farewell act, and then leaving the facility.
Before leaving, Sharpe invited his daughter Kayley to the desk to say his goodbyes, hug her, and thank her. Sharpe’s behind-the-scenes video indicated where his hand was when he gave her a hug, even though the televised portion did not show their entire bodies. Social media also raised concerns.
Although it is a little awkward, it gives a better impression of Sharpe, who was criticised for how he handled singer Kandi Burruss during their photo shoot in March when she appeared as a guest on his show. Shannon seemed to always embrace that manner. Obviously, he doesn’t mean it if he cuddles his daughter in such a way.
I can’t thank you all enough. From the people at Fox, to my Family, Friends, and loyal Followers. Join me as I go into my next chapter. pic.twitter.com/5Whj2jpoFa

Why is Shannon Sharpe quitting “Undisputed”?
The employment of Shannon Sharpe there came to an end when FS1 hired him away. Despite the fact that there is no formal justification for his departure, many believe it was due to a deteriorating friendship with Skip Bayless. The presenters have regularly fought on-screen over the years, but perhaps one particular incident was the deciding factor for Sharpe. After Damar Hamlin collapsed and required to be resuscitated on the field, Bayless tweeted that the NFL would find it difficult to postpone the game.
Sharpe was impacted by the circumstance on a personal level and disagreed with what Bayless had written. He missed the next concert, so the one that came after was incredibly worrisome. Many believe that Sharpe’s breaking point came at this time. In any event, LeSean McCoy’s time might be just beginning while mine has already ended.
