Victor Cruz knows it’s still in him.

The Giants receiver’s comeback from knee and calf injuries, which had kept him out of the game since October 2014 before his return this season, has been impressive enough. And Cruz will never forget that game-winning touchdown reception against the Cowboys in his first game back.

But he knows there is more. Feels it in his soul. The kind of game that Cruz once was known for, that six-catch, 142-yard, two-touchdown type of game that occurred regularly when he was one of the NFL’s top receivers before injuries felled him, is still in there somewhere.
