The resumption of the NFL with the 104th season will bring back analysts to their hot seat. But one analyst won’t be returning to the show they made their name at for over half a decade. The sports show led by Skip Bayless and ex-host Shannon Sharpe will have one permanent feature missing this upcoming season. After an ‘undisputed’ reign over the hearts of many sports fans, the show’s status is under threat. In spite of the trajectory, Bayless has continued his Sharpe-less analytics with new hosts joining him on the table.
The latest installment of Undisputed is still in its early days with Bayless as the primary face of the show. It has provided the fans with a clip they’ll watch more than once to make sure they’ve heard it right.

With the new Undisputed set to reinvent the talk show to move on from their former pairing, Skip Bayless has continued his duties in leading the show. In the latest installment of Undisputed, while conversing with former Seahawks CB joined the table from across the ex-ESPN analyst. It was in this conversation that one of Skip’s addresses caught the eye of JPA football.
In a tweet by JPA football, they highlighted a curious statement from Skip to the SB XLVIII winner. With the tweet caption, “There’s no way”, Skip was heard embracing Sherman in a friendly argument with the words, “You came hard.” While the analyst may not have thought much of the statement, the pause that followed his words spoke volumes. The interaction inspired one of the fans to address Bayless’s comment with, “There is no chance Skip knows what that means lol”.

After the appearance by Richard Sherman, the undisputed roster has gained clarity for the 2023 NFL season. The former Bucs CB is set to appear for anywhere between 50-100 episodes, whereas 2 other analysts have been named as Michael Irvin and Keyshawn Johnson. Sherman and Skip have a history between them as they have partnered on older projects together, from their time together on ‘First Take‘.
This has sealed the door shut for any potential return for the fans of the former Broncos TE to the talk show. Whilst FS1 and Bayless have made their moves to move on from the past success, Sharpe is believed to be considering his options before committing to an entity in the industry.
