For 15 NFL seasons, lifetime New York Giants defensive end Michael Strahan terrorized opposing offenses, filling the gaps with a relentless pass rush that led to 141.5 sacks (sixth-most in league history).

But even after retiring following the 2007 season and entering into a career of television and entertainment, the now long-time media personality had one more gap to erase.

On Tuesday afternoon via his Twitter page, Strahan—also known for having wide gap between his two front teeth—announced it had been sacked and fully repaired as well.

ā€œI've got to do what I want to do for myself, you know,ā€ Michael Strahan said to his doctors in the video. ā€œYou're the only one who knows. And you're the best at this, so that's why I'm here.ā€

According to the video, Strahan had the work done at Smile Design Manhattan in New York, a cosmetic dentistry service that is well regarded. Interestingly enough, there weren't any loose lips on Strahan's decision, with his Twitter announcement coming as a complete surprise to most.

Is this some elaborate ruse to set up an epic ā€œApril Fool's Dayā€ joke, or did Strahan really go through with it? Hard to say, but not everyone is convinced:

For now, only Strahan knows the ā€œtoothā€ of it.

Also an analyst for NFL Fox Sunday and foxsports.com, some of his most recent television engagements include hosting the ā€œ$100,000 Pyramidā€ and being one of the trio for daytime show ā€œStrahan, Sara and Kekeā€ before the coronavirus pandemic sidelined both projects until further notice.
