It’s been a huge week for New York legends Cam’ron and Ma$e. Their sports show ‘It Is What It Is’ returned for its fifth season on Monday (September 2nd). With their return came the announcement that legendary Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Irvin will be the show’s newest football analyst.

Irvin worked for the NFL Network for 15 years as an analyst. Irvin also spent several years providing football analysis on ESPN’s First Take, Get Up, Sunday NFL Countdown, and other ESPN programs.

Before his commentary career, Michael Irvin was deemed the “playmaker” for the Dallas Cowboys. He was a key piece in the Cowboys’ dynasty, which won three Super Bowl titles in the 1990s.

Michael Irvin is a member of the Hall of Fame All-1990s NFL team, a 5x Pro Bowler, a 1x All-Pro, and a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. In his 11-year career, he caught 750 passes for 11,904 yards and 65 touchdowns. He earned his 5 Pro Bowl selections from 1991-1995. 

If yesterday’s episode was any indication, the addition of Irvin promises to make the show even more hilarious, entertaining and groundbreaking than it already is. Check out a clip of Michael Irvin’s first segment below.

On top of introducing Irvin, the September 3rd episode discussed Anthony Edwards’s comments about the skill set of the Jordan era of NBA legends, the NFL’s historical record of 15 Black Quarterbacks starting Week 1, and whether or not Bills Quarterback Josh Allen is overrated. 

Check out the first three episodes of the new ‘It Is What It Is’ season (and all of the episodes from all of the seasons) exclusively on YouTube. The show can be found on Instagram @itiswhatitis_talk and X @ITISWATITISTALK 

Congrats to Cam, Ma$e and Treasure ‘Stat Baby’ Wilson on their fifth season. Also, congrats to Michael Irvin for being added to the team!
