Suspended Irving says he's quitting, blasts NFL

Suspended Dallas Cowboys defensive tackle David Irving said Thursday he is quitting the NFL.

Irving, 25, made the announcement as he filmed himself in a video on Instagram Live, less than a week after the league suspended him indefinitely for violating its Policy and Program for Substances of Abuse for a third time in as many years.

"Basically guys, I quit," Irving said. "I don't want to talk about a suspension and all this other nonsense. I'm outta there. I'm not doing this s--- no more."

Irving specified that his problem is with the league, rather than the sport.
