Michael Irvin Family

Irvin is the 15th among Pearl and Walter Irvin’s 17 children. Pearl was a dedicated homemaker, managing household duties throughout the week while Walter worked as a roofer from dawn till dusk. On weekends, Walter traveled to Georgia to serve as the pastor of Mt. Calvary Primitive Baptist Church. He also led Greater Bethel Primitive Baptist Church in Ft. Myers, Florida.

While pregnant with Michael, Pearl experienced a divine moment at Mount Mary Primitive Baptist Church where she felt God affirming, “This is the one.” She was conscious that her child was destined for a greater purpose.

Michael cherished and respected his father, who succumbed to cancer while he was still in high school. He vowed to always take care of his mother during visits to his father in the hospital. Walter passed into eternity the following morning to be with God.

Michael Irvin Career

The Dallas Cowboys picked Irvin with the 11th selection in the first round of the 1988 NFL Draft. Under the guidance of long-standing general manager Tex Schramm, player personnel director Gil Brandt, and coach Tom Landry, he was the Cowboys’ final first-round draft selection (Schramm believed that Irvin would accelerate the team’s “return to form”). Irvin became the first rookie wide receiver in 20 years to commence a season opener for the Cowboys, marking his first career touchdown.

Landry also recorded three touchdown receptions in the Cowboys’ victory over the Washington Redskins, one of only three wins for the team that season and Landry’s last.

The Cowboys faced challenges the following year, finishing with a 1–15 record, the poorest in franchise history. Injuries limited Irvin to just six games after tearing his anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee against the San Francisco 49ers, landing him on the injured reserve list.

He didn’t participate until the fourth game of the 1990 season due to injury, and he caught his first pass until the seventh game. He concluded the season with only 20 receptions for 413 yards, but his average was an impressive 20.7 yards per catch.
