Giants Face Season Loss as Rookie Skattebo Suffers Ankle Injury

New York Giants rookie running back Cam Skattebo suffered a brutal ankle injury during a game against the Philadelphia Eagles, ending his 2025 season and requiring emergency surgery. Skattebo's injury was a major blow to the team and its fan base, as he had quickly become a key player with 410 rushing yards, five touchdowns, and a dynamic presence on the field. Despite the setback, Skattebo has shown resilience, returning to the team facility wearing a brace and maintaining a positive attitude, with his rehab on pace for a likely return in 2026. Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart and others emphasized Skattebo's vital role in team chemistry and morale. Meanwhile, second-year back Tyrone Tracy Jr. is stepping up to fill the void left by Skattebo, ready to take on increased responsibility and support the team’s offensive efforts. Skattebo's journey from an undersized high school player to a breakout NFL star underscores his determination and the strong community support he enjoys.
