The former Dallas Cowboy was "asked by network officials to move to another hotel on Monday after what he described as a brief encounter with a woman." Irvin claims that on Sunday, Feb. 5, after an evening out where he had a "few drinks," he returned to his hotel and went straight to his room. However, a woman he apparently met in the lobby tells a different story.

Irvin doesn't recall having a short conversation with said woman, but whatever was discussed was upsetting enough for her to report it. He was told that on the security camera, he's seen talking to her for no more than a minute. "I guess the girl said I said something to her within that minute that we talked, and so they moved me," he told Dallas’ 105.3 The Fan and the Dallas Morning News, via AP. So far police have not been alerted to any wrongdoing.
