In his return to action with the New York Giants, wide receiver Victor Cruz only caught one pass for four yards against the New York Jets. Now, the main focus will be getting Cruz back to the effective level from a few years ago.

When he was fully healthy, Cruz was considered one of the most explosive players in the NFL and the Giants certainly could have used him over the last two seasons playing alogside Odell Beckham Jr. It may take some time, but New York realizes getting Cruz back in a preseason game is at least the first step in the right direction.

After scoring just 10 points over the previous two preseason games, it was good to see the Giants finally come through with a win against the Jets. Anytime Ryan Nassib throws two touchdown passes should be considered a great day–even if the quarterback was just 6 of 19 passing for 69 yards in the process.
