Victor Cruz once used to catch passes from Eli Manning and turn them into touchdowns. Now without an NFL team, Cruz thinks it would be really neat to get back on the field — in virtual reality.
“I think just me, from a fan perspective, if I’m able to put on a headset, the VR headset, and be at the 50-yard line to watch Eli Manning, for lack of better teams, at the 30 and I’m behind him and I can see the entire (play)—in real-time—that’s a game changer,” Cruz said at Advertising Week-New York last week on a panel about how mobile and data are influencing the future of sports.
