Michael Strahan Rips Into Aaron Rodgers, Jets ‘Suck Too’
One of Michael Strahan’s jobs as an NFL analyst is to critique players and teams based on their play. However, like other Fox analysts, he also has favorites for which he will openly cheer. Sadly for Strahan, he has little to cheer this season, as his New York Giants are one of the worst teams in the NFL. This past Sunday, he took his fandom to another level when he trashed a current NFL player.
Here is what Strahan said about Aaron Rodgers and his New York Jets.
Michael Strahan Trashes Aaron Rodgers & The New York Jets
Michael Strahan is an analyst for the NFL when he is not on the Good Morning America set. He works alongside Howie Long, Jimmy Johnson, Terry Bradshaw, and Rob Gronkowski, covering the week’s games and players. Strahan is also a former NFL player, and he often cheers for his old team when they are playing well.
This is no different from the other analysts. Johnson (Dallas Cowboys), Long (Las Vegas Raiders), Gronkowski (New England Patriots), and Bradshaw (Pittsburgh Steelers) all pull for their former teams as well. However, this season, Strahan’s Giants have been terrible.
The Giants have only won two games in their first 11. They fired their head coach. They fired their general manager. They even benched and then released their starting quarterback. Before the season started, they let their best player (Saquon Barkley) leave via free agency. Barkley is now the NFL’s leading running back with the rival Philadelphia Eagles.
Strahan had little positive to say about his team after the Giants lost to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a 30-7 blowout. Instead, he leveled his scorn at the New York Jets, who share a stadium with the Giants, saying they suck too.
What Did Michael Strahan Say About Aaron Rodgers?
Michael Strahan said there was very little to be happy about as a New York Giants fan and former player. However, he did come up with one positive thing to say.
“There’s one thing you can feel good about as a Giants fan,” Strahan said. “The Jets suck too this year. They both missed on quarterbacks.” The Giants drafted Daniel Jones in the first round in 2019 to be their franchise quarterback. He struggled, and many experts believe he had no chance with the Giants’ leadership.
However, the New York Jets didn’t draft their quarterback. They signed former Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers as a free agent and gave him the reins. After missing his first season with an injury, he hasn’t played well in his first full season with the team.
Rodgers’s completion percentage is the lowest outside of his 2019 season with the Packers, and his quarterback rating is the lowest of his entire career. The Jets have only one more win than the Giants, and both teams are a massive disappointment.
