Michael Strahan of the defending Super Bowl champion New York Giants has decided to call it a career. Strahan, who spent 15 years in the NFL, will reportedly take a job in television.
Although Strahan wasn’t as dominant as he used to be, he remained one of the best defensive linemen in the league. The Giants will definitely miss his presence. New York should be able to replace him but they would have been better with him than without him.
In terms of fantasy football, the retirement of Strahan makes their defense less valuable. The Giants defense is still a top seven fantasy football defense but it shouldn’t be considered an elite defense right now.
Here a video discussing more about the impact of Strahan’s retirement:
