We’ll take Michael Strahan at his word for now, but the timing sure seems suspect.
The former New York Giants defensive end and Hall of Famer was known for his ferocity as a player, but also for his gap-toothed grin. The Super Bowl XLII champion posted a video Tuesday on social media that showed him going to the dentist and having the gap closed, Sports Illustrated reported.
Skeptics will point out that Strahan, 49 posted his video on Twitter and Instagram less than 48 hours before April Fools’ Day. So, caveat emptor.

“It’ll be 50 years in the making,” Strahan says in the video.
