Victor Cruz, Rashad Jennings released by Giants

The salsa is no more. At least not with the Giants.

The team released popular wide receiver Victor Cruz, the team announced Tuesday, marking the end of one of the more entertaining and improbable careers in Giants history.

The team also released running back Rashad Jennings.

Cruz began as an undrafted free agent in 2010, emerged as a superstar on a Super Bowl-winning team in 2011 with his trademark touchdown dance, missed nearly two full seasons of football because of knee and calf injuries, then returned to the field in 2016. He was due to earn $6.
