Warren Sapp's Co-Workers Glad He was FIRED From the NFL Network After Prostitution Charges

The NFL Hall of Fame is reserved for the very best players the league has to offer. Warren Sapp definitely earned his place amongst football's greatest athletes. In recent news, Sapp was fired from his position with the NFL Network after he was arrested for soliciting prostitution. Now, many of his co-workers have spoken out, and apparently, the disgraced baller was a nightmare to work with. This is almost hard to believe, when looking back on all that Sapp accomplished during his career.

Before his time a professional, Sapp played college ball for the University of Miami. During his time there, he was named an All-American, and he won a multitude of impressive awards.

His consistent performances earned him a 12th overall pick with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers during the 1995 NFL Draft. Sapp's impression on the NFL was undeniable, and his place in the history books is uncontested.

Unfortunately, his reputation recently suffered a devastating blow. According to TMZ Sports, Sapp's co-workers were glad to see him go:

"Warren Sapp wasn't exactly Mr. Congeniality at the NFL Network -- with a whole bunch of employees telling [saying] they're GLAD he's gone...because he was a nightmare to work with. Sapp was fired from his gig as an analyst for the NFL Network after he was arrested for soliciting prostitutes. Now, after speaking with nearly a DOZEN current and former employees ... everyone is telling us the same thing -- GOOD RIDDANCE!!!"

This is actually quite contradictory to Sapp's track record. According to Pro Football H.O.F., Warren's on-the-field persona is very different from his off-the-field presence:

"Sapp developed into one of the most dominating defensive tackles in NFL history during 13 seasons that included four final years with the Oakland Raiders from 2004-07. He racked up an unusually high total of sacks for an interior defensive lineman as he registered 96.5 career sacks. Four times he posted double-digit sack totals in a season including a career-high and team record 16.5 in 2000. He earned NFL Defensive Player of the Year honors in 1999 when he helped the Buccaneers to its first division title in 18 seasons..."
