Giants Rookie Cam Skattebo Suffers Severe Ankle Injury vs Eagles

New York Giants rookie running back Cam Skattebo suffered a severe right ankle injury during a game against the Philadelphia Eagles, which is likely season-ending. The injury occurred after a pass from quarterback Jaxson Dart, with Skattebo's ankle visibly bending in an unnatural direction, prompting immediate medical attention and a cart removal from the field. The injury was possibly caused by an illegal hip-drop tackle, a technique the NFL has tried to penalize due to its dangerous nature but has rarely called during games. Skattebo had been a key offensive player for the Giants, contributing significantly in rushing yards, touchdowns, and receptions, and his absence further challenges a team already missing star receiver Malik Nabers due to injury. Eagles fans showed a touching moment of sportsmanship by giving Skattebo a standing ovation as he was taken off the field. The Giants will look to players like Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Devin Singletary to fill the void left by Skattebo's injury as the team considers trade options to strengthen their roster.
