Victor Michael Cruz (born November 11, 1986) is an American football wide receiver for the New York Giants of the National Football League. He was an undrafted free agent signed by the Giants in the 2010 offseason. He played college football at the University of Massachusetts. Against San Francisco in the NFC title game, Cruz had 10 grabs for 142 yards—all in the first half—as the Giants edged the 49ers, 20-17, in overtime to advance to Super Bowl XLVI. The Giants then won the Super Bowl against the Patriots for another Super Bowl title. Cruz has celebrated nearly every touchdown with salsa dance. He stated that it was in honor of his deceased grandmother who taught him how to dance salsa and loved touchdown dances. The New York Daily News even had a dance instructor write about his technique. Cruz's touchdown dance led to him receiving an offer to appear on Dancing with the Stars, which he turned down.
