4 biggest NY Giants fan favorites of the last 20 years

2. Michael Strahan
What can you say about Michael Strahan other than the fact that he's one of the best pass-rushers of all time - and he provided Giants fans with countless memories. Strahan was a monster going up against offensive linemen during his days with Big Blue, posting 141.5 career sacks. Strahan retired following the 2007 campaign.
A first-ballot Hall of Famer, seven-time Pro Bowler, four-time All-Pro, and the 2001 Defensive Player of the Year, Strahan is one of the most decorated Giants players of all time. He holds the record as Big Blue’s all-time sack leader and is tied with T.J. Watt for the all-time single-season sack record (22.5) since sacks became an official statistic in 1982. In other words, Strahan was a one-man wrecking crew in his day.
No. 92 is retired by the Giants as a result of Strahan’s contributions to the franchise. He also paved his way into the New York Giants Ring of Honor. Not only is he popular amongst Giants fans, but he was also voted to the NFL 2000s All-Decade team. His legacy goes beyond the Giants fanbase, making it an easy decision to include on this list.
