The Sharp reports are expected to cover the NFL regular season and playoffs. These reports will appear on Ferrall Coast to Coast, Pro Football Today, and In-Game Live All Access.
He headlines a roster of analysts including Scott Ferrall, Craig Mish, Gabe Morency, Ben Stevens, Kevin Walsh and Andrew Andersson among others.

"Warren's well-known insights and deep analysis of the NFL teams, players, and betting markets have developed his reputation as one of the foremost experts in the sports betting industry. We are extremely pleased and excited to add him to our NFL coverage for multiple years."
Along with hosting and networking, Sharp will contribute to SportsGrid's new app launch and amplify content on social media by providing picks and posting betting-related video content on the company's social media channels.
Sharp added: "When I look at the future of sports gambling coverage, I see SportsGrid as an outstanding place to reach the fans who want the NFL insight I provide on a regular basis.
"SportsGrid's content strategy gives me the freedom to provide that information with the personality and style that I believe resonates with NFL fans and particularly NFL fans who gamble. I'd like to thank Adam Kaplan and the rest of the team at SportsGrid for giving me that opportunity."
