Giants WR Victor Cruz is '100 percent'

Giants general manager Jerry Reese said this week he hopes wide receiver Victor Cruz will be "full-go" by training camp.

Cruz is on board with his boss's optimism, telling NJ Advance Media he feels he is back to full strength as he continues to rehab the rare calf injury that cost him the entire 2015 season.

"I'm feeling great. Workouts have been going amazing. Each day, it gets better and better," Cruz said on Friday afternoon while making an appearance during a free children's health screening seminar here in his hometown at the Boys and Girls Club.

"I'm excited to continue to train, continue that pattern, and see where it takes me. ... I'm 100 percent. I feel good. No injuries, no ailments, nothing hurts, no pain."

Cruz has not played in a game since October of 2014, when he suffered a right patellar tear. And his comeback attempt never materialized last year, as a series of false starts with a nagging calf injury eventually led to season-ending surgery without the former Paterson Catholic star playing a down.

Fantasy Impact: 

Rueben Randle is gone, which opens up 90 targets in the passing game. If Cruz is fully healthy he should be fantasy relevant, but everyone knows that Odell Beckham is the star of this show.
