The Giants better not let this guy go! We need him! Victor Cruz hopes the New York Giants will rework his contract at some point before the end of the season.
The Giants’ playmaking receiver is in the final season of his contract worth $540,000. He will be a restricted free agent after the season.
“I’m just in a position right now where I’m just focused on football,” Cruz said on WFAN during his weekly spot. “I have people, my agents and things like that, to worry about that stuff. But as a human being, you obviously want to … you hope you get it done before the season’s over, obviously.”
Cruz has maintained all year that he wants to focus on football and not let his contract become a distraction. He also has tried to keep his contract status from becoming an issue.
The wide receiver broke out last season with 82 receptions for 1,536 yards and nine touchdowns. This season, Cruz has remained hot with 50 receptions for 627 yards and seven touchdowns. He had seven catches for 131 yards and the game-winning 77-yard touchdown against Washington on Sunday.
