Michael Strahan has been chosen as Kelly Ripa’s permanent co-host on ‘Live With Kelly’ according to a new report.

TMZ is reporting that the show staffers are stating the former NFL player will soon be announced as Regis Philbin‘s replacement on the morning show.

This news is not so surprising as Michael, 40, was reported to be one of the three finalists in position to get the job weeks ago alongside Seth Meyers (Saturday Night Live head writer) and Josh Groban (singer).

Since then, it has been reported that Seth was offered the job but turned it down, which if true, makes Michael the second choice. Ouch.

The show will officially announce the new co-host on Sept. 4
