At one point, the New York Giants and wide receiver Victor Cruz were believed to be nearing an agreement on a long-term contract extension. That no longer appears to be the case, as Ian Rapoport of NFL.com reports negotiations between the Giants and Cruz’s representation are moving “incredibly slow.”

Rapoport adds that Cruz is not expected to attend the Giants’ mandatory minicamp without a contract. He’s not expected to sign his unrestricted free agent tender, which would allow him to participate in camp without a contract extension in place.

Things could pick up now that we’ve reached mandatory minicamps, but there haven’t been any signs to say Cruz is nearing a deal with New York. While both sides seem to be matching on the length of the proposed deal, the yearly salary seems to be off by a few million. At least that was the case earlier this offseason.
