Michael Strahan is leaving Live with Kelly and Michael, but viewers will still be able to spend their mornings with him.

After four years co-hosting Live with Kelly Ripa, the former NFL star is departing to work full time at Good Morning America starting in September. He joined GMA two years ago, working twice a week, before heading over to Live.

Strahan, who retired from the NFL in 2008, will continue co-hosting Fox NFL Sunday during the football season.

"Over the past two years on GMA, Michael's proven to be a tireless and versatile broadcaster with an incredible ability to connect with people, from veterans and all kinds of newsmakers to a host of modern American cultural icons," said ABC News president James Goldston in a statement.
