Fox Sports has parted ways with NFL analyst Mark Sanchez, following his arrest in Indianapolis last month following an altercation with a truck driver.

We can confirm that Mark Sanchez is no longer with the network. There will be no further comment at this time, a Fox News spokesperson tells The Hollywood Reporter.

Fox on Friday said that former NFL quarterback and veteran broadcaster Drew Brees was joining the network as a game analyst, working with Adam Amin in the broadcast booth and Kristina Pink reporting from the sidelines. Drew is one of the best to ever play the game, and we couldnt be more excited to have his prolific credentials and unique insights as part of our coverage on Sundays, said Fox Sports president of production operations/executive producerBrad Zager. Were thrilled to welcome him to the Fox Sports family.

Sanchez was stabbed and hospitalized in the altercation, though he was arrested at the hospital as he recovered.

Sanchez is facing a level 5 felony battery resulting in serious bodily injury charge. The charge carries a potential sentence of up to six years in prison.

Sanchez was initially facing misdemeanor charges for alleged battery with injury, unlawful entry of a motor vehicle and public intoxication but once they learned more about the victims current medical condition, but Marion County prosecutor Ryan Mears said it became clear to us that additional charges needed to be filed.
