Michael Strahan shared a message Monday honoring veterans after the internet was in an uproar over his mannerisms during a special pre-Veterans Day broadcast on “Fox NFL Sunday” from Naval Base San Diego on Sunday.

The Giants legend faced backlash for standing with his hands folded in front of him during the national anthem — while his Fox Sports co-hosts stood with their hands over their hearts among dozens of military personnel.

On Veterans Day, Strahan paid tribute to his father, Major Gene W. Strahan Sr., who he said served for 23 years in the army and was a proud member of the 82nd Airborne Division.

“Thank you to all veterans and active service members who courageously risk their lives to protect us every day,” Strahan, 52, wrote, including photos of his father in uniform. “Your selfless service is beyond measure.

“This is my hero, it is also my father, Maj. Gene W. Strahan, Sr.”

The “Good Morning America” anchor went on to honor all veterans for their service.

“Just as I honor my father, I keep all of you in my thoughts each and every day as we would not have the safety and freedoms we cherish without you. Thank You,” Strahan concluded.

Many believed Strahan’s demeanor during the national anthem was disrespectful to veterans, especially with the show being filmed on location at the Naval Base in San Diego ahead of Veterans Day.

The former Super Bowl champ has yet to directly address the matter.
