Giants receiver Victor Cruz may miss preseason opener

Published August 09, 2016

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) Wide receiver Victor Cruz may miss the New York Giants' preseason opener against the Miami Dolphins because of a groin injury.

Once one of the NFL's biggest playmakers, Cruz has not played in a game since hurting a knee midway through the 2014 season. He missed all of last season with a calf injury.

Coach Ben McAdoo was taking a wait-and-see approach when asked whether the seventh-year receiver would play on Friday night at MetLife Stadium.

Cruz also was uncertain about the game, but he was not frustrated. He said the injury was a typical training camp problem, adding the important thing for him is to listen to his body. He insisted the groin issue was not a major one.
