Report: Ex-ESPN host Rachel Nichols to join Richard Sherman as 'Undisputed' co-host alongside Skip Bayless

Rachel Nichols will join FS1 as a panelist on "Undisputed," where she will take turns as a co-host verbally sparring with Skip Bayless, Sports Business Journal reports.

Nichols is the latest reported hire alongside former NFL cornerback Richard Sherman and rapper Lil Wayne to join the show as a panelist. They join "Undisputed" after the departure of full-time panelist Shannon Sharpe, who left the show in June.

Sharpe left the show after his relationship with Bayless deteriorated on air amid arguments that turned increasingly contentious. A show based on debating the topics of the day in sports devolved into the pair yelling personal attacks at each other.
