As New York Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz heads into the last year of his current contract, he made it clear that he’s focused more on football right now then getting a new contract.
“It’s going to be whatever my agents are working on with the organization. Whatever timing they feel is right. I’m going to go out there and take care of what my job is and that’s to go out there and play football,” Cruz said. ”Whenever the contract comes, it comes. I’m not going to be sitting back, waiting for it, thinking about it, because then I won’t be focused on football. When that time comes, we’ll cross that bridge.”
If Cruz has a season this like he did in 2011, the Giants will be forced pay him top dollar and his can move out of his town house and into a bigger home.
