17. New York Giants (19)

Don’t look now, but Victor Cruz is healthy for the New York Giants, and the wide receiver seems determined to do as much salsa dancing as possible during the 2016 season.

One of the biggest issues for the Giants last year was finishing out close games, and Ben McAdoo‘s squad is already showing improvement following Sunday’s win against the Dallas Cowboys. For a team entering the season with back-to-back 6-10 finishes, maybe there is hope for New York when it comes to the NFC East.

Of course, this team still has a long way to go when it comes to proving themselves as contenders in the division. However, it was good to see Cruz find the end zone during his first game back in two years, and let’s hope this is an early sign of a bounce-back year from the wideout who has always been fun to watch on the field.
