After seven seasons on the Fox Sports 1 sports talk show Skip and Shannon: Undisputed, former NFL Super Bowl champion Shannon Sharpe announced that he was leaving the show.
In the video below, Sharpe’s former co-host Skip Bayless reports that his friend, rapper Lil Wayne, will join Bayless on his new The Skip Bayless Show every Friday. The rapper will do a live segment with Bayless every week. Bayless tells his fans: “That you can look forward to.”
Bayless adds about Lil Wayne: “He is so deep when it comes to sports. He doesn’t yell or scream, but he does get emotional.”
Note: The Undisputed theme song, ‘No Mercy,’ is by Lil Wayne, who has occasionally appeared on the show.
On Bayless’s new show, as seen below, the sports analyst answers questions from fans including this emotional one from Theo in Chicago: ‘Is Dak Prescott a Hall of Famer?’
Bayless winces after he reads the question and says, “When I first read the question, I started to laugh, and then I almost started to cry.”

While Bayless admits to being a “delusional” Dallas Cowboys fan, still, “Right now, Dak Prescott is in my hall of shame.” Bayless shakes his head, “He’s so far from Hall of Fame.”
Note: NFL quarterback Dak Prescott played college football at Mississippi State before being selected by the Dallas Cowboys in the 2016 NFL Draft. As a rookie, Prescott became the Cowboys starting QB after starter Tony Romo became injured in the preseason.
Cooper Rush UNDEFEATED, 5-0 as starter. Is Dak Prescott era over in Dallas?

Prescott has since won two division titles and made two Pro Bowl appearances, but Bayless reminds fans — as if real Cowboys fans needed reminding — the last Prescott Pro Bowl selection was back in 2018.
Bayless says he would be “real comfortable” if Cowboys QB Cooper Rush took over for “x amount” of games to see if he can extend his strong play from last year. Bayless says after watching Rush’s successful (5-1) stint as the Cowboys starter last season, he concluded that Rush “runs the offense more efficiently and effectively than Dak ever did.”
