Bears' Victor Cruz not getting opportunity to start
Chicago Bears wide receiver Victor Cruz is not running with the starters in preseason.
Alongside Cameron Meredith and Kevin White, Kendall Wright is receiving the first-team reps as the team's slot receiver. That left Cruz to play just 18 snaps late in Chicago's second preseason game Saturday night, which could tell us that he's in danger of being cut before the regular season gets underway.
With 3 catches, 11 yards and a touchdown through a pair of preseason matchups, our models project Cruz for 31.0 grabs, 427.1 yards and 2.0 touchdowns in his first season with the Bears. As WR87, he's not a guy you need to target in fantasy drafts.
