Shannon Sharpe is facing serious accusations in a $50 million sexual assault lawsuit, and the news has drawn a loud reaction from someone who’s never been shy about speaking his mind — Antonio Brown . As Sharpe works to defend himself publicly and legally, Brown took to social media with a not-so-subtle jab that’s stirring even more conversation.
Antonio Brown breaks silence with shady jab at Shannon Sharpe amid explosive $50M assault lawsuit
Antonio Brown isn’t one to bite his tongue — and Shannon Sharpe just found himself on the receiving end of another classic AB dig. Following the emergence of a $50 million sexual assault lawsuit against the Hall of Fame tight end, Brown took to social media with a message that raised eyebrows: “This n***a ain’t slick…” followed by a rainbow and dinosaur emoji.
The post came shortly after Sharpe and his legal team, led by Lanny J. Davis, released alleged text messages from Gabriella Zuniga — the woman suing him — to refute her accusations. Zuniga, now represented by Tony Buzbee (best known for representing many of Deshaun Watson’s accusers), claims a rocky relationship turned violent, with multiple alleged assaults in late 2024.
According to court documents, Zuniga first met Sharpe at a Los Angeles gym in 2023. What began as consensual escalated into a darker pattern of control, she alleges. One incident reportedly involved Sharpe forcing her into a car, then into unwanted sexual acts at her apartment. Another came just weeks later, under the pretense of delivering a gift.
While Sharpe has denied all allegations, the situation has already begun to ripple through NFL circles and media. The leaked texts and rapid-fire social reactions have only added more tension to a story that’s far from over.
Brown, who has a long history of antagonizing Sharpe online, previously accused him and other former players of steroid use and mocked his business ventures. His latest remark isn’t surprising — but the timing certainly fuels the drama.

As the case plays out, Sharpe is expected to continue defending himself publicly. But with social media lighting up and past beefs resurfacing, this one’s already spiraling far beyond the courtroom.
