Michael Irvin vehemently denied ongoing allegations of misconduct during an emotional press conference on Wednesday. In doing so, he compared his treatment by Marriott Hotels to a Black man being lynched.
Irvin, 57, was removed from his assignments with NFL Network just before Super Bowl LVII in Arizona. The decision came after a woman working at a Marriott hotel accused him of misconduct.
The Pro Football Hall of Fame wide receiver has since decided to sue the accuser, and the Renaissance Hotel (which is owned by Marriott) at which the alleged incident occurred.

As collectives across the country seek new, innovative ways to raise NIL funds for their respective programs, Ole Miss’ Grove Collective is teasing one of the most unique partnerships of the new era.
