Michael Irvin will no longer be one of the faces of NFL Network's Super Bowl coverage this week - the former Dallas Cowboys star who became a huge TV personality has been pulled from the shows following an incident that he had with a woman in Arizona on Sunday night.

Irvin told the Dallas Morning News the encounter happened at a hotel in Glendale — the site of this weekend's SB LVII — after he returned to the property after a night out on the town.

Irvin says he spoke with the woman for about 45 seconds in the lobby and described the whole thing as an almost entirely non-physical interaction.

The woman, however, according to the DMN, filed a complaint regarding Irvin's actions, leading the NFLN to remove him from their coverage on Tuesday.

Irvin says he was left "baffled" by the whole thing - explaining to the outlet that it was such an innocuous conversation he barely remembered.

“When I came back from leaving…I walked into the lobby and talked to someone,” Irvin said. "I talked to this girl. I don't know her and I talked to her for about 45 seconds."

"We shook hands. Then I left. … That's all I know."
