NFL Network pulled former Dallas Cowboys and Hall of Fame wide receiver Michael Irvin from its Super Bowl coverage this week following allegations of misconduct at a hotel Sunday night, the network announced.
“Michael Irvin will not be a part of NFL Network’s Super Bowl LVII week coverage,” said Alex Riethmiller, NFL Media vice president of communications, in a statement, per the Dallas Morning News.
Neither the claimant — a woman — nor NFL Media detailed the nature of the allegations. Irvin, though, told the Morning News that he doesn't remember any issues with the encounter with the woman, only that they shook hands and spoke for less than a minute in the hotel lobby.
