New York Giants WR Victor Cruz(knee) recently posted a video to social media showcasing the injured star's point in his recovery from a torn patellar tendon in his knee suffered nearly 18 months ago. The video details the mobility in the wide receiver's knee during the workout. Despite the positives, it is still unknown if Cruz can make football-moves on the injured knee. (Around the NFL)

Fantasy Impact:

The Giants re-structured Victor Cruz's contract earlier in the offseason due to the uncertainty surrounding Cruz's ability to play at a high-level following an injury as crucial as he suffered in 2015. If Cruz can make a return to the field this year, his fantasy football value comes to question. Cruz would likely start along side of Odell Beckham, but should be looked upon as a mid-range WR3 for fantasy purposes. Cruz is a risky boom-or-bust option in 2016.
