Wednesday morning followers of Shannon Sharpe’s Instagram account got quite the experience when a sexual encounter was seemingly broadcast live.

While the people engaged in the activity are not seen, a man and woman certainly sound like they’re engaged in sexual activities. At one point, the man seems to refer to the woman as “Michelle” while the woman seems to refer to the man as “Shannon.”

As that video went mega-viral on social media, the First Take co-host and Nightcap co-host took to Instagram to claim that his account had been hacked.

“Beware my @shannonsharpe84 Instagram was hacked this morning, my team and I working vigorously to figure this out,” read the post.

While the entire internet waits to hear from Sharpe about what exactly happened here, several of his co-workers have reacted on social media.

First up is Chad Johnson, his Nightcap co-host, whom Sharpe scolded recently over his lack of professionalism. The situation provided Johnson with the perfect opportunity to get back at his co-host.

Johnson was responding to Ryan Clark, Sharpe’s ESPN colleague, who had a pertinent question.

Joining Clark with a reaction to what he’d heard was Damien Woody.

And then there was Marcus Spears, who saw what everyone had to say and wanted to stay out of it.

Sharpe has yet to comment on the video and we don’t yet know if there will be any fallout with ESPN. Until then, the memes will keep rolling and we expect even more ESPN folks will have something to say, or at least, imply.

Meanwhile, even though she no longer works at ESPN, we’re gonna give Michelle Beadle the gold medal for best reaction post.

Ma’am…
