NFL Network analyst, former Cowboy WR Michael Irvin accused of sexual harassment

The NFL Network suspended Marshall Faulk, Heath Evans and Ike Taylor after Bloomberg reported they allegedly groped and made inappropriate comments to Jamie Cantor, who was the head of the network's wardrobe department. 

Erin McParland, who worked under Cantor at the NFL Network, wrote in a first-person article on Sports Illustrated that she was sexually harassed by Eric Davis and Irvin. The article centers around her interactions with Davis, but Irvin is also mentioned as someone who made inappropriate comments and advances. 

McParland said Irvin grabbed her waist while she was powdering him on the set of NFL Gameday. 

"From then on, my guard with Irvin was up," McParland wrote. "I went out of my way to avoid him, and if I did have to work with him, I'd have to remind him to "not touch." In what world is it normal for someone to have to remind their coworker to not touch them?"

Irvin and and Davis did not respond to SI's request for comment.

When reached by The Dallas Morning News on Friday, Irvin said the network instructed him not to comment. According to a network source, the network has looked into Irvin's behavior and he is scheduled to work this weekend as planned.
