It’s been a sad but honorable week for New York Giants fans. On Tuesday, former stand-out wide receiver Victor Cruz announced his retirement from the NFL. This comes after a full season of being a free agent, the longest drought for him in his career.
From the beginning, Cruz was a productive star for Big Blue. Undrafted from UMass, the receiver first made an impression in the 2010 preseason, however, he didn’t play much in the regular season. 2011 was when he began to make a name for himself. He began a career full of memorable touchdown catches, big plays, and unfortunately, multiple injuries.
