Thick skin seems to be a job requirement on FOX NFL Sunday, and Jay Glazer proved he has it in spades as he brought Shakespeare to the mix. While Michael Strahan humored about yet another suit. Confused? Don’t be. Read on.

After Michael Strahan joked about his face during a live segment, Glazer responded with humor and a fiery comeback. His tweet, declaring, “You better have thick skin to be part of our team. Et tu, @michaelstrahan, et tu?? Btw, s—- him… I look PHENOMENAL!!!” had fans laughing while their on-screen roast-off showcased the unique camaraderie that defines the NFL on FOX crew. The playful ribbing started with Glazer, flaunting his sharp suit.

He confidently proclaimed his style on air. Strahan wasted no time taking a jab, humorously suggesting the suit distracted viewers from Glazer’s face. “Jay’s suit looks great… What I love most about it… I told him earlier, I’m saying this to his face… The suit looks so good because they distract from his face,” Strahan quipped. But he didn’t stop there.

The NFL legend further joked, saying, “You’re kind of the same color as your suit.” Glazer, not one to back down from friendly banter, took to Twitter to express his feelings, saying he was ‘phenomenal‘ while dismissing Strahan’s comments. The banter was a highlight for fans who adore their chemistry. And the fans jumped in, too.

“Hey @JayGlazer – my dad just called me (from the hospital) and wants to know what shoes you’re wearing so he can get them for my wedding 🥹🖤” wrote one person in the comments section. The team’s authentic bond makes every broadcast a must-watch. The Glazer-Strahan roast wasn’t just about suits and one-liners—it was about a friendship built on banter and support. In November, Glazer had come to Michael Strahan’s defense.

A friendship built on humor

The support came after the former NFL star faced backlash for his behavior during the national anthem on Veterans Day. Strahan was criticized for standing with his arms by his sides, while other hosts, like Rob Gronkowski, placed their hands over their hearts. Glazer took to X to defend Strahan, stating, “I don’t know if I have a friend who is more proud of his military roots than Michael.” He emphasized that Strahan had grown up on an army base.

“Growing up on an army base constantly talking about what he learned from his dad, Major Gene Strahan, and how his time there shaped him.” Glazer also pointed out Strahan’s history of donating thousands of dollars in clothes to veterans, showcasing his deep respect for military personnel. Glazer’s message highlighted the importance of understanding Strahan’s intent, suggesting Strahan would have made it clear if he had been protesting. He also encouraged people to ask Strahan directly before jumping to conclusions. The recent shenanigan is a testament to the unique energy that the FOX NFL Sunday crew brings. But Glazer’s lighthearted “s—- him” wasn’t the only buzzworthy comment.

Strahan’s sharp take on Kirk Cousins’s performance with the Falcons turned heads. After Cousins’s recent struggles, including zero touchdowns and eight interceptions in four games, Strahan called for a humbling pivot. “I think Kirk may have to just humble himself right now,” he advised, suggesting Cousins embrace a mentorship role for rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr.

Strahan’s dual ability to entertain and critique is what sets him apart. “Consistency mediocre,” Strahan quipped, summing up Cousins’s current form. While fans debated his future, Strahan’s perspective highlighted the tough realities athletes face in their careers. Whether it’s teasing or tackling serious topics, their chemistry keeps the show fresh.

Glazer, meanwhile, continued to champion his team, proving their camaraderie isn’t just for show. As Cousins faces an uncertain future, Strahan’s words carry a sobering truth. For the NFL on FOX crew, though, their humor and heart remain their winning formula.
