Victor Cruz is the New York Giants No. 1 wide receiver and would like to be treated as such. Cruz was embarrassed by the Giants blowout loss to the Lions on Monday night.
The salsa king told the New York Daily News that he needs more passes his way for the Giants to be successful.
“I think in order for us to be successful, there needs to be an increased number of targets in my direction,” Cruz said Tuesday, according to the New York Daily News. “And in other playmakers’ directions. Just likeRueben Randle as well, in my opinion. But that all comes with the continuity, that comes with getting the running game going, that comes with building what we want to build as the game continues.”
The Giants offense was out of sync all preseason, while Cruz and Reuben Randle managed just four catches for 25 yards against a Detroit secondary that will never be compared to Seattle’s.
