Former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Irvin has been axed from the NFL Network’s coverage of Super Bowl LVII after an incident Sunday night involving a woman in the lobby of an Arizona hotel. According to the Dallas Morning News, the woman submitted a complaint about Irvin’s behavior that led to his removal from the programming for America’s biggest sporting event. Irvin has denied all wrongdoing, claiming that his conversation with the woman after a night on the town lasted “about 45 seconds” and that the only physical contact that occurred between them was a handshake. Though Irvin said he could not recall the entire encounter, which occurred after a night of drinking, he said he was “perplexed” by the complaint and remembered only a “friendly conversation.” The woman who filed the complaint has not made a statement about the incident.
