The retired NFL star's colleagues, Robin Roberts and George Stephanopoulos were more than happy for the star, who retired from football in 2007.

 This is just one of many achievements Michael has enjoyed over the past few years. In 2021, the star found out live on GMA that his New York Giants jersey, No.92, would be retiring.
