Emmanuel Acho has never been this quiet.
This has been a direct result of allegations that FS1 host Joy Taylor used sexual relationships with the former NFL player and network executive Charlie Dixon to further her career, according to the bombshell lawsuit that has shaken up the sports world.
The lawsuit, filed by former Fox Sports hairstylist Noushin Faraji, details claims of workplace misconduct, including harassment, during her tenure with the network from 2012 to August 2024.
Faraji claims that when she reported her issues with Bayless and Dixon to Taylor, the host allegedly told her to “get over it.”
According to the suit, Taylor’s sexual relationships with former NFL linebacker-turned-analyst Emmanuel Acho and later with Charlie Dixon would help secure a more prominent position within the company.
Taylor was just a fill-in host at the time but was later added to the network in a full-time role.
The most incredible thing about this situation is that often opinionated Emmanuel Acho was entirely quiet on social media during the week of the regular season.

A second fan added: “Emmanuel Acho is a pretty opinionated fella with lots of thoughts on the NFL. He hasn’t tweeted in eight hours on the final day of the regular season. I wonder what… OH MY GOD.”
