When New York Giants’ wide receiver Victor Cruz went down in the right corner of the end zone during last Sunday night’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles, Giants fans held their collective breath. Cruz was officially placed on IR Tuesday.
Early on Friday, he spoke to the media for the first time since the incident.
From Josh Alper’s article, Cruz said a few things about his rehab process and feels like he will be back to full strength.
“I don’t have any doubt that I’ll be back,” Cruz said via Art Stapleton of the North Jersey Record. ” I don’t have any doubt in my mind. I’ve never been bred that way. I’ve just never believed in doubt.”
Cruz also used Twitter to thank his fans for their support:

In case you missed it, here is the play where Cruz suffered the injury against the Eagles:
Cruz has been a vital part to the New York Giants and caught a touchdown pass in the Giants’ Super Bowl XLVI victory over the New England Patriots.
In 2014, Cruz has 23 receptions for 337 yards and a touchdown and his team has a .500 record through six weeks. Eli Manning will have to find a new favorite target for the 2014 season.
Here you go New York Giants fans, enjoy a little salsa dancing, compliments of Victor Cruz. He will be back before you know it.
