Michael Irvin Defends Jed York After Arrest

Hall of Famer Michael Irvin has publicly defended 49ers owner Jed York following York's recent arrest and no-contest plea to misdemeanor prostitution charges.

Irvin, speaking on Twitch, argued that York was recently going through a divorce and suggested the situation was overblown. He compared the transaction to paying for a standard date, stating, "Everybody’s paying for it." esporist.com

Despite York actively seeking contact on a website involved in the sting operation, Irvin believes the backlash is unfair. He questioned why the incident is being used to embarrass the owner, urging people to "leave it alone."
