Michael Irvin has been in a heated legal battle with Marriott over some allegations that were made against him. During Super Bowl week in Arizona, Irvin was stripped of his analyst role by the NFL Network. Overall, this was because a woman had made accusations against him. However, at the time, the extent of the accusations was unknown. This subsequently led to a lawsuit from Irvin, who was seeking $100 million from Marriott which just so happens to employ his accuser.
This situation has been quite confusing, although today, there were some major updates. For instance, it was revealed that the lawsuit was being dismissed by Irvin's own lawyers. However, this is not what you think. Instead, they were simply removing the case from Texas, and refining it in Arizona. Moreover, it was alleged that Irvin asked his accuser "whether she knew anything about having a 'big Black man inside of [her].'" As promised, today, Irvin's attorney Levi McCathern unveiled footage from the Marriott. Below, you can see a six-minute surveillance video from the interaction, and it is quite interesting.

Throughout the video, you can see that Irvin is talking to his accuser for quite some time. He shakes her hand and he then touches her elbow twice throughout the interaction. From there, he moved on to some fans who wanted to take a picture with him. Overall, his lawyer believes this is enough to exonerate him. "There's no doubt from watching this, this woman is not offended," McCathern said. "This is not a sexual assault. This isn't sexual harassment. This isn't sexual misconduct."
Furthermore, Irvin offered his own take on the matter. "I don't speak like that. I've never spoken like that. I totally deny saying that," he noted. "We used to say in football, 'The eye in the sky don't tell no lie.' It's just the truth." This matter has been surprising to a lot of fans, as they still can't make heads or tails of it all. It remains a developing situation, so stay tuned to HNHH for the latest updates. Additionally, let us know what you think of the footage, down below.
