Victor Cruz is a co-host of E!'s "Pop of the Morning," an hour-long program that offers viewers an unfiltered, in-depth and irreverent look at the most talked-about news stories of the day. As a former New York Giants player and NFL Super Bowl champion from Paterson, New Jersey, Cruz's first love will always be football. Off the field, Cruz is recognized as a fashion icon and tastemaker. In 2014, he was named on Vanity Fair’s International Best-Dressed List and has also been featured in GQ, AQ and Vogue magazines. In 2016, he was also recognized by Sports Illustrated as the most fashionable athlete and released the Air Trainer Cruz, being the first football athlete to design and release a lifestyle shoe with Nike. Cruz also devotes his time to numerous causes and is an active philanthropist. He launched the Victor Cruz Foundation in 2014, which encourages children to become physically active, focusing on college readiness, financial literacy and STEM programming. Since Cruz officially retired from the NFL, he has also served as an ESPN NFL analyst.
