Not as a coach but I think he's still been involved with the Giants at some capacity and I think for that he does have 2 Super Bowl rings from the 2007 and 2011 seasons

February 3, 2008 was one of the most memorable days of my life and to be in the stadium in Glendale watching 92 take it to 12 and the entire NEP offense was exhilarating. As a lifelong NYG fan, THANK YOU Michael, and Congratulations on this very well deserved honor! Go G-Men!

I had a beer with Eli the Friday before Super Bowl 41 in Miami. He is so chill. Took him an hour to drink one. He loves to talk.

[@mearndt1]

He's always like this

[@RandomGuy285]

Eli's always like this if it's a non-football matter. It was just with the media that he acted like he had no personality.

[@josephlawrence9584]

I’m a Washington fan so I always hated when we had to play him, but I’ve got nothing but respect for him. Congrats and well deserved!

[@joeyglover3429]

As a giants fan I always dreaded when we would play you guys because of Sean Taylor. Seriously such a heartbreaking thing knowing he didn’t get to see his number retired

[@GrittyGuapo]

Strahan the man! Elite Eli! I miss that squad so much

[@movado0379]

Too bad Armstead didn’t get a ring too! He was a tremendous defensive player for the Giants.

[@NYGiantsDiEhArD]

Growing up as a Giants fan I'd watch the NFL Films Road to Super Bowl 42 documentary all the time. I've probably watched it 100 times. It's a little bitter sweet watching these guys come together in a stiff, professional televised reunion after they've all went separate paths in life after football. But hopefully they still keep in touch and bullshit from time to time as buddies.

[@ArganawkTLOD]

I'm a long time diehard Brady fan but I refuse to be a hater. Stopped the undefeated season and has always been class personified, he very much deservesthis distinction. I can't like him but I respect him.🏆🏆#92

[@xSnarfsx]

And that's exactly how it feels to not be a Brady fan. Anyone can say whatever they want about Brady, but you have to respect him as a player.

[@dang5217]

Broncos fan over here, but always loved how Michael strahan played the game. He’s an awesome guy and was a great player

[@zedanide6984]

Eli, Strahan, and Tuck are such an amazing trio and of course Armstead an underrated player and friend. Eli and Strahan definitely deserve jersey retirement and deserve to be sent to the HoF/Ring of Honor

[@nr30199]

Surprised that it took this long. I thought the Giants would have already done this.

[@NinaDasher212]

Without these guys Brady would've had a perfect season As a long time Dolphin's fan Thank you all

[@quincey3468]

Where Osi at he should’ve been there too man I miss that team

[@beezy22]

Salute respect and blessings….even though I’m a Pats Fan, Michael Strahan is one of my favorite defensive players in the NFL…A humble and respectful class act, never heard anything bad about him on and off the field through his years in the NFL….

[@robgarcia007]

Congratulations Michael! 👊 You are one of the best players to ever play the game, on and off the field! Well Deserved

[@chrisgleason1344]

I can't stand any of them (Pats Fan) but the shot over Tuck's shoulder to Strahan, as Tuck was talking about Michael had me in goosebumps and tears. Well deserved honor.

Outstanding player, such a dynamic force Michael Strahan was. He was a defensive end that could cover let alone destroy quarterbacks, he was awesome. He definitely deserves this.

[@aboucard93]

Thank you Michael for being amazing, one of my favorite G-men and proudly wearing that gap in your mouth

[@pete7389]

This man terrorized my team - the Eagles. Little did we know at the time, he had so much talent off the field as well. Congrats M. Strahan.

[@geneticfreak2411]

I'll never forget that Giants D-line from '07, absolutely incredible

[@NathanDav42]

Number retirement is rare in the NFL, which is obviously because 47 uniformed players are on the field for each game day, but being from New York and the Giants playing there, where the Yankees have retired a LOT of numbers (they not only have no numbers left from 1-10, 8 is retired for 2 different players), has always made me feel more Giants’ numbers should be retired. Eli and Strahan are both deserving of it. It was a joy to watch them play. That said, my all-time favorite Giant is neither of them, but IS on the stage with them: Justin Tuck. Tuck wasn’t as great as Strahan or Eli, and he’ll never make the Hall of Fame, but he was my guy.

I think if your team’s jersey number gets retired that should almost guarantee your spot in the Pro Football HOF.
