Secret Revealed: Victor Cruz reveals The Story Of Odell Beckham Jr. wearing Timberlands In Miami

Victor Cruz has provided an explanation for the enigma surrounding the notorious Giants’ boat picture from Miami.

After defeating Washington 19-10 on New Year’s Day to finish the regular season 11-5, a group of Giants receivers, including Cruz, Odell Beckham Jr., Sterling Shephard, and Roger Lewis, flew to Miami to visit Liv Nightclub, go out on a yacht, and party with Trey Songz and Justin Bieber.

The Giants would be eliminated from the playoffs early the next week after being destroyed 38-13 by the Packers at Lambeau Field.

Cruz has previously expressed regret about the humiliating boat journey, which has persisted in the public consciousness for the intervening years.

However, nobody had ever explained why Beckham had made the fashion faux pas of stepping off a yacht wearing a pair of Timberland boots.

“When we flew to Miami, he was like, ‘Man, I don’t have any shoes,’” Cruz stated on the “Green Light Podcast” with Chris Long.

“I was like, ‘I only have these Timbs for you.’ So those are actually my boots that he’s wearing in the photo.”

Cruz discussed the journey with E! Online in 2020.

“This photo will haunt me for the rest of my life,” he said.

“It was more so the feeling of, ‘Man, when am I going to get to do this again? When am I going to get to be an athlete, win a football game, go on a private jet, go to Miami the same night?’” Cruz told the outlet.

“It was one of those things where I was just like, ‘I think I’m just going to feed our ego tonight.’”

He was of the opinion that they would have gotten away with it if the journey had occurred earlier in history.

“If this was 1999, no one would have known about the trip, we would have went, had a great time, come back,” Cruz said.
