Shannon Sharpe goes off on former quarterback Samuel Bradford amid speculations about Marvin Harrison’s future. Often known as one of the best WRs in the league, the 21-year-old has had a brilliant season with the Ohio State Buckeyes this year, and the team is trying to get Harrison to stay back for yet another year.

The wide receiver will want to consider a return to the Ohio team, as there’s a big paycheck waiting for him unless he decides otherwise. In light of all the attention that is being shone on Harrison, Sharpe took to his show to talk about the $50 million contract that Sam Bradford received despite being a ghost in the football world.

On the latest episode of the ‘Nightcap’ show, Shannon Sharpe and Chad Johnson were seen reacting to the news that Harrison is considering coming back to Ohio for another season rather than proceeding forward with the NFL draft. In this process, he took a sharp dig at Samuel Bradford, the former QB for the Arizona Cardinals.

Sharpe said, “I remember Sam Bradford got 50 million never played the down. He was the last one that got the deal because of what the owners did. “ Samuel Bradford has been a controversial figure in sports history, as he’s been known to disappear from all public views after retiring from professional football. Thus, Shannon’s point was that if Bradford could get such a high-value deal, then Harrison could certainly land a deal with double-digit millions.
