It’s been almost a full year since Victor Cruz has been in action but his return date is near. Cruz feels he is now 100% healthy and will return to action this weekend to face the Jacksonville Jaguars.
“I feel good. The knee is 100 percent,” said Cruz. “Sunday was probably my most physically enduring practice, in terms of limitations … I felt good. Woke up this morning, no injury, no pain, no swelling or anything. I feel like I’ve crossed that bridge.”
The Giants are expected to have Cruz in the lineup this weekend for their preseason game. Although they will continue to monitor Cruz and limit him in some ways, their offense could be elite when Cruz becomes a full go. Teammate Odell Beckham Jr. has earn his spot on the team and if Cruz can return to form, Eli Manning could have two 1000 yard receivers by seasons end.
