NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: ‘Good Morning America’ host Michael Strahan recently took to Instagram to share a major throwback clip of his best plays from his time in the NFL with the New York Giants.
The 51-year-old reminisced about the golden days of his professional career as a sportsman in the brief clip and acknowledged that time has flown rather too quickly for him.
After his post, the fans jumped on the bandwagon and asked him to “suit up” in the Giants jersey once again and return to the field.
While that is unlikely, knowing that the fans still love and support him puts a huge smile on Strahan’s face.

Strahan's first love has always been football. For now, alongside hosting the morning show, he also hosts Fox NFL on Sundays.
In his recent Instagram post, Strahan once again showcased his eternal love for the sport by sharing a small edited clip with highlights of his time as a New York Giants player.
In the clip, Strahan appears to be a bulky figure, walking out to the stadium, making hefty tackles, running along the pitch to complete a touchdown, motivating his team members, and putting in his best efforts to help his team win.
Even today, Strahan is tied with T J Watt for the most NFL single-season quarterback sacks.
The ‘GMA’ star also helped the Giants win Super Bowl XLII from the New England Patriots in his final season in 2007.
After sharing the clip with his fans and followers for throwback Thursday, Strahan captioned the post, “Time flies… thanks to these videos for bringing back the good times on the field.”
The ex-NFL player had amassed a huge following due to his impressive performances in the sport, and after witnessing their team struggle these days, fans have made a heartfelt plea to their legend to return to the football field.
