The New York Giants’ Victor Cruz on Wednesday met with the family of Jack Pinto, the 6-year-old boy who was killed last week in the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Conn.
Cruz was Pinto’s favorite player, and the youngster was buried in the star wide receiver’s jersey on Monday.
“You never go through some circumstances like this,” Cruz told ESPN about his meeting with Pinto’s family. “This was definitely the toughest by far.”
