According to a new viral report, Rose was fired by the network following an incident with fellow analyst Malika Andrews.
Rose was fired by ESPN, according to ButtCrack Sports on Twitter, for inappropriate behaviour that was allegedly caught on video. Andrews can be heard telling Rose to get his hands off her, as he has his arm around her.
It should be noted, however, that the report is false, and the audio in the video has been edited. ButtCrack Sports is a well-known satire and parody account known for making up headlines.
