If you’re looking for a guy who lives life as loud as he played it, Warren Sapp is your man. The Hall of Fame defensive tackle has never been one to blend into the background, on or off the field. Sapp always sets his energy to max, whether he’s globe-trotting, coaching, or stirring up a little controversy. And lately? The “QB killa” has been all over the news for reasons far beyond his NFL legend. Sapp is officially the Pass Rush Coordinator for Coach Prime’s Colorado Buffaloes. Following a whirlwind tour of Europe, picturing all luxury atmosphere in Taipei and courtside hoops action, Sapp arrived back in Boulder just in time for spring practice. He wasted no time promoting his new position, posting on Instagram and drilling with the Buffs’ defense, promising a season that’s going to be “loud and unfiltered, just like Sapp himself.
But Sapp being Sapp, he’s also kept things lively in the press. He recently fueled controversy by throwing shade at Cowboys star Micah Parsons, questioning his credentials as a premier pass rusher and even storming out of a Super Bowl interview when pressed on the issue. Now, when it comes to Warren Sapp’s family, let’s just say the man’s stats off the field are almost as impressive as his Pro Bowl numbers. Sapp’s got six kids with four different women, and if you’re already losing track, don’t worry-you’re not alone. He married JaMiko Vaughn back in 1998, and together they had four kids: Jaelon, Warren II (aka “Deuce”), Mercedes, and Autumn Jade. The couple broke up in 2007, but Sapp is still able to keep the family huddle tight, even though the playbook is a bit more complex than the average Sunday cruise.
You know, despite all the headlines Warren Sapp captures, now and again, it’s his children who make the headlines, and this Mother’s Day was one of those occasions that just has a different vibe. His daughter, Mercedes, jumped on Instagram and released a video that was a love letter to her mom and included none other than her brother, Warren Sapp II. “My entire heart. I win. I love you more than life itself. Happy Mother’s Day.” Mercedes Sapp, who’s been dominating behind the scenes at USF (fresh off assisting the Bulls in winning the AAC championship), kept it real and intimate with her mom, Jamiko Sapp, basking in the stadium lights with her brother, Warren Sapp II, right by her side.
Warren Sapp II, who’s taking a page from dad’s playbook at Florida Atlantic, also left a sweet message for his mom, reminding the world just how much she’s loved by them. It wasn’t a “Happy Mother’s Day” post-it was a love letter, stadium-sized, to the woman who’s held this high-achieving, sometimes wild, always loving team together. And honestly, it’s vintage Sapp family. They may be all over the place, one in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, one calling the shots at USF, another fighting on the college gridiron, but when it’s time to honor mom, they unite, stadium lights and all.
Sapp’s Epic 3,246-Mile Fishing Quest
And just when you thought the Sapp family’s stadium-sized Mother’s Day couldn’t possibly get any sweeter, Warren Sapp himself chose to swap the roar of the crowd for the splash of the ocean-traveling a whopping 3,246 miles all the way down to Costa Rica to pursue his true passion: fishing. Because, let’s be real, if there’s one thing Sapp loves more than sacking quarterbacks or getting his kids pumped up, it’s reeling in something big and scaly.
So, what does a Hall of Famer do on summer vacation? He operates in full “Fish Whisperer” mode. ‘Fatboy on the trigger LIVE!!’ is the caption of his latest Instagram post. Sapp’s Instagram has been a highlight reel of sun, saltwater, and major bragging rights. He’s at Club Pelagic, ecstatic, catching TEN sailfish and a school of tuna in a day, as he always does things excessively. He even makes light of the WiFi being powerful enough to broadcast his fishing escapades live, because, as Sapp quips, “Fish on your live. Why? You online.
Sapp’s in paradise, water just the perfect kind of wet, sun scorching, and he’s goofing off like a summer-vacation kid. He’s got that enormous “I’m living my best life” vibe, trading playbooks for tackle boxes and stadium din for waves.
