Michael Irvin is coming to the defense of San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York after his recent prostitution arrest, arguing that even those who don’t pay for sex directly still “pay for it” in other ways.
The former NFL wide receiver defended York on N3on’s stream, saying it really shouldn’t be anyone’s business if a dude doles out cash to sleep with a woman. Mike argues people are always paying for it, whether by buying someone else’s dinner, giving someone an expensive present, or whatever else, noting all relationships have an inherently transactional component. Plus, Michael says people need to take Jed’s recent divorce into account. “It’s a tough time for the guy, so if he wants to pay to get into the end zone, then let the guy live his life.”
York was arrested earlier this year on charges of soliciting prostitution. He has since pleaded no contest to misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and possession of criminal tools, a cell phone. The NFL is still investigating the incident.
