Michael Irvin out at NFL Network with major changes coming

The Playmaker will have a new home on Sundays.

The Post has learned that Michael Irvin’s contract will not be renewed at NFL Network as the league-owned channel undergoes a round of cost cuts.

Irvin, 58, was a three-time Super Bowl champion with the Cowboys, and was enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2007.

He had been an analyst at NFL Network since 2009, and has played a major role in the Sunday football pregame show, “GameDay Morning”.

Irvin was sent home from NFL Network’s 2023 Super Bowl coverage after he was accused of making lewd comments to a woman in a Phoenix hotel.

He denied wrongdoing, and was reinstated to NFL Network’s programming last season.

The Post has also learned that NFL Network’s “NFL Total Access” will air its final show later this month.

The nightly news program had been a part of the network’s lineup since 2003.

This past March, NFL Network had taken “Total Access”, which airs at 7:00 pm ET, off the air for a week.

Earlier Friday, Front Office Sports reported that NFL Network had a round of layoffs this week, and will be airing “an altered programming schedule this upcoming season”.

The cuts were made to “ensure the continued strength of our game and the business,” an NFL Network spokesperson confirmed to the outlet.

A spokesperson for the network declined to comment to The Post about “Total Access” coming to an end, and did not immediately respond to an inquiry about Irvin.

There have been several rounds of cost cuts at NFL Network over the past year.

Earlier this year, former Post columnist Andrew Marchand reported that the NFL and ESPN were in talks about the league taking an equity stake in the network.

In a concurrent move, the report said, NFL Network programming and NFL.com would transition to being under ESPN’s production umbrella.

In March, NFL Network announced that “Good Morning Football” would move its studio from New Jersey to the Los Angeles area later this year and go on hiatus in the interim.

“The news is that ‘Good Morning Football’ is moving before the 2024 season, around training camp,” show stalwart Kyle Brandt said after the announcement.

“‘Good Morning Football’ goes West, like Fievel, going to California several months from now. But contrary to some oddly-worded tweets and the ensuing confusion, ‘Good Morning Football’ is not ending. ‘Good Morning Football,’ the show, the brand, is gonna continue for a very long time. It’s expanding — more, bigger, brighter.”
