NFL Hall of Fame Shannon Sharpe was accused of rape and sexual battery in a bombshell $50 million lawsuit. In court documents filed in Nevada on April 20, according to NBC Sports, a woman identified as "Jane Doe" accused Sharpe of sexually assaulting her on multiple occasions as well as making verbal threats. Sharpe strongly denied those allegations, calling the lawsuit a "shakedown" on behalf of Jane Doe's attorney, Tony Buzbee. The athlete later outed Jane Doe's supposed identity in a video statement.
