Warning: This story contains details about alleged sexual abuse. NFL Hall of Famer and current ESPN personality Shannon Sharpe was reportedly named in a lawsuit Sunday alleging he committed sexual assault and battery.

Shannon Sharpe’s intention is to be back on the air in time for the start of the NFL season, for which there will be an exhibition game held in July. However, ESPN has not confirmed a definite return date for Sharpe. In the meantime, we’ll have to wait and see if Jason Kelce does indeed end up taking his seat on First Take.

The Hall of Fame tight end and popular podcaster says he's taking a break from ESPN duties to deal with sexual assault allegations.
