New York Giants wide out Victor Cruz is still not practicing; Looking Doubtful for week 1
Tom Coughlin hinted today that Victor Cruz might not be playing week one. The veteran wide receiver wasn’t in pads for Monday’s practice as he continues to nurse the strained calf that kept him from playing during the preseason, per Ebenezer Samuel of the New York Daily News.
“When he practices, I’ll let you know,” coach Tom Coughlin told reporters, which makes you assume the team is ready to start Odell Beckham Jr. and Rueben Randle against the Cowboys.
The Giants have enough talent to field one of the league’s top receiving trios, but Cruz has served as a constant injury concern of late, missing 12 games over the past two seasons.
