The Giants went on to win the game by a score of 16— After a long rehab, Cruz gave an update informing the media he wasn't yet fully recovered but mostly there. Cruz returned to training camp in the summer of , but unfortunately aggravated his calf. The aggravation of his calf further delayed his comeback. From Week 5, Cruz's return was pushed to play in Week 10 against the Patriots, but it was later announced that Cruz would undergo surgery on his left calf, and would miss the entire season.
On November 17, , he was placed on season-ending injured reserve. On October 12, , against the Philadelphia Eagles, Cruz suffered a torn patellar tendon, prematurely ending his season. In six games of , Cruz produced receiving yards and a touchdown. This made the total a six-year deal, including the free agent tender. Cruz suffered a heel bruise in an August 18 preseason game. Unlike center David Baas's injury, Victor Cruz's heel bruise was deemed minimal in nature.
Pinto was a fan of Cruz, who wore a tribute on his shoes in the game against the Atlanta Falcons two days after the massacre. In permanent marker, one shoe read "R. On October 2, with the Giants trailing 27—24 to the Arizona Cardinals in the fourth quarter with under three minutes left to play, Cruz made a reception and went down without being touched at the Cardinals yard line and released the ball as he got up. Believing that Cruz had fumbled since he was never touched, a Cardinal picked up the ball as if it was still alive.
The play was whistled dead, but further replay after the game showed Cruz did appear to fumble. On the next play, Eli Manning threw the game-winning touchdown pass to Hakeem Nicks. His 89 yards after the catch on the play is the most by a receiver on a yard reception. This catch has constantly been highlighted as the turning point of the Giants season. In the same game, Cruz also surpassed Amani Toomer as the record holder for the most single-season receiving yards by a Giant. If not, he'll be placed on IR and likely receive an injury settlement from the team.
Due to the loss of Cameron Meredith knee for the season, Cruz had a prime chance to make an impression on the coaching staff, but management will instead roll with Kevin White and a cast of misfits to round out the receiving corps. Cruz was able to walk off the field under his own power, so he may be fully recovered from the injury by the time the regular season arrives.
Look for coach John Fox to provide an update on Cruz's condition after the game. Cruz caught one pass for eight yards while being targeted twice in Sunday's victory over the Titans. Cruz made his lone reception in the two-minute drill while lining up in the slot. However, his most notable play was when he dropped a perfect pass from Mitch Trubisky on a third down in the fourth quarter. He'll be in a battle to earn a roster spot, and it's possible that the injury to Cameron Meredith improves his odds a bit.
Regardless, he hasn't looked like the playmaker we knew from his days with the Giants. Cruz hasn't gotten much run with the first-team offense, ESPN.
Markus Wheaton's finger continued absence might have seemed to free up an opportunity, but the Bears have shown a clear preference for using Kendall Wright over Cruz out of the slot.
The year-old did have six targets and a touchdown in the preseason opener, but Wright dominated first-team slot work while finding the end zone in the second exhibition contest.
Cruz likely will open the year fourth or fifth on the depth chart, if he even makes the final roster. Cruz caught three of six targets for 11 yards and a touchdown during Thursday's preseason opener against Denver. Cruz worked primarily out of the slot during the Bears ' offseason program, and with Cameron Meredith and Kevin White likely to lock down the starting receiving jobs on the outside, that's probably Cruz's best chance to make an impact.
The veteran will still need to beat out Kendall Wright and Markus Wheaton to garner enough targets to warrant fantasy consideration, so expectations should probably remain in check.
Cruz has mostly played the slot throughout his career, but the Giants moved him outside last season to accommodate the addition of Sterling Shepard. The following year, he tore his patellar tendon against the Philadelphia Eagles in October, curbing another promising season after just six games. More injuries sidelined him for the season. After undergoing extensive rehab, Cruz made it back to field in In February , the Giants released Cruz.
He signed a one-year deal with the Chicago Bears, but then they released him in September In January , Cruz and his longtime girlfriend, Elaina Watley, became parents with the birth of their daughter, Kennedy. In December , just before a game against the Atlanta Falcons, the football star honored 6-year-old Jack Pinto, a big Cruz fan and one of the victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings in Newtown, Connecticut, by writing Pinto's name on his cleats and gloves.
