This sounds familiar. I can't tell if it's old or if it happened again.

Former NFL quarterback Sean Salisbury was a journeyman at best during his NFL career. After retiring from football, he became a mini-star at ESPN, despite an annoying tendency to speak in absolutes and hyperbole. (Case in point, he said before Super Bowl XLI that, if Devin Hester of the Bears returns a kick for a touchdown, Chicago will win. Hester did. Chicago didn't.)
He left ESPN in early 2008, claiming that he wanted to move on to bigger and better things. Some thought that the powers-that-be in Bristol might not have been all that upset about the development.
Since then, Salisbury has generally faded into oblivion.
He'll be even more oblivious, according to the folks at Deadspin, because he has been fired from Dallas radio station 105.3 the Fan. Per Deadspin, Salisbury "freaked out a station promo girl after sexting her."
Salisbury reportedly got himself into hot water while in Bristol for showing to co-workers a certain type of self-portrait.
