On Monday, Skip Bayless announced that Michael Irvin, Keyshawn Johnson, and Richard Sherman were joining him on ESPN’s Undisputed.
“RICHARD SHERMAN! KEYSHAWN JOHNSON! MICHAEL IRVIN! NEW DREAM TEAM ON THE NEW UNDISPUTED. NEW LIL WAYNE INTRO SONG, “GOOD MORNING.” NEXT MONDAY. AUGUST 28. 9:30 E, FS1. BE THERE,” Bayless tweeted.
The news about Sherman joining the show comes as no surprise since his name has been circulating for some time.

After parting ways with ESPN in June due to their recent cost-cutting measures, Johnson’s move to “Undisputed” seemed promising. But, The Post reported that the announcement was premature and that Johnson has yet to be released from his ESPN contract.
As for Irvin, John Ourand of the Sports Business Journal said the Pro Football Hall of Famer was close to a deal last week, but things “cooled” before Monday’s agreement was reached.
Irvin’s move to “Undisputed” is essentially a trade with Shannon Sharpe since the latter’s June departure. Earlier this month, it was revealed that Sharpe would join Stephen A on ESPN’s First Take for two weekly episodes.
