The Facts: Cruz is visiting the Jacksonville Jaguars on May 23.
Diehards Line:
The Giants released Cruz in February. The 30-year-old receiver met with the Carolina Panthers months ago but has garnered little interest since. An undrafted free agent in 2010, Cruz became a star under coach Tom Coughlin in New York. With Coughlin leading the revamp in Jacksonville, the connection makes sense from a personal perspective. But as NFL.com notes, from an on-field standpoint, a Cruz-Jags marriage offers a more puzzling quandary. The Jaguars already own a talented receiver corps headlined by Allen Robinson, Allen Hurns, Marqise Lee and added fourth-round pick Dede Westbrook in the draft. Perhaps Coughlin believes Cruz can bring an added veteran presence to a young group. Whatever the case, if the meeting turns into a signing, Cruz will need to show he's returned to form to make it through final cuts later this summer.
