Michael Irvin isn’t going anywhere after signing an extension to remain with NFL Network.
The 56-year-old’s deal was slated to end before kickoff of the upcoming NFL season but he wanted to remain with the network and the network wanted him to continue, per a report from Michael McCarthy of Front Office Sports.
Irvin has been with NFL Network since 2009. He’ll continue his work on NFL GameDay Morning and make regular appearances on NFL Total Access.
While there was speculation ESPN may have been interested in his services, Irwin decided instead to remain with NFL Network. He will, however, continue to join Stephen A. Smith as a contributor and pundit on First Take.
He will also continue to host The Michael Irvin Podcast with PodcastOne.
