Michael Irvin under police investigation over undisclosed ‘allegation’

Michael Irvin is the subject of a police investigation in Texas over an allegation that has not been specified.

The Allen (Texas) Police Department confirmed the news to ProFootballTalk, declining to clarify the nature of the accusation.

“There has been an allegation, but we are not prepared to release any details at this time due to our investigation being in its very early stages,” the police department told the outlet.

Nevertheless, Irvin’s attorney, Levi McCathern, vehemently denied that his client did anything wrong.

“He didn’t do anything wrong or inappropriate,” McCathern told ProFootballTalk.

The lawyer continued to emphasize that there was “absolutely no truth” to the allegation.

There have been a number of times where Irvin has faced allegations of improper behavior that have not ended up in a conviction.

McCathern predicted that this case, as happened with previous allegations, “will turn out to be much ado about nothing.”

NFL Media spokesperson Alex Riethmiller told The Post, “We’re aware of the report but don’t have any additional details at this point.”

Last year, Irvin was sent home from his broadcasting roles during Super Bowl week with NFL Network and ESPN after the Cowboys legend was accused of inappropriately propositioning a Marriott hotel worker.

Irvin maintained his innocence in this situation, saying he was being “railroaded” by a false accusation.

McCathern, the attorney, spoke about being upset that video of the incident was taking a long time to be released.

“I’m mad as hell that they’re hiding this stuff that is so relevant to my client’s livelihood,” said McCathern, a Dallas-based attorney.

“I think it is terrible they’re doing that. I don’t know what’s on the video. None of us have gotten to see it. But I sure think that, at a minimum, Michael has got a right to see the video.”

Irvin filed a lawsuit against Marriott, and the suit reached an undisclosed settlement.

Irvin was reinstated to NFL Network right before this season began.
