Pro Football Hall of Famer Michael Irvin and Spike TV are on a quest to give a football hopeful a shot at making the Dallas Cowboys roster in the new series 4th and Long. Spike TV will chronicle the rigorous training, heated competition, and compelling moments among 12 talented unsigned football players -- individuals who either blew their first shot at making the NFL, or never had one to begin with. In a 10-week training camp, Irvin will offer his wealth of experience and guidance to mold them into NFL-caliber players. Each week a different contestant will be cut, with the eventual victor heading to training camp with football's legendary franchise, the Dallas Cowboys.
