In February of 2012, Victor Cruz, Hakeem Nicks and Mario Manningham helped the New York Giants win their fourth Super Bowl in franchise history. Five years later, neither of them are on the team after the Giants cutting Cruz on Monday, and if nobody picks him up, they’ll all be out of the league.
No one could have foreseen that these three men would be out of the league before they turned 31, especially since they had a combined 197 receptions and 20 touchdowns, and helped Eli Manning throw for a career-high 4,933 yards.
