Giants Rookie Cam Skattebo Faces Surgery After Gruesome Ankle Injury Against Eagles
In a devastating turn of events for the New York Giants, rookie running back Cam Skattebo suffered a dislocated right ankle during the game against the Philadelphia Eagles, which ended in a heavy 38-20 defeat for the Giants. Skattebo, who has been a breakout star this season, was carted off the field following the horrific injury that left teammates and fans in shock. Reports indicate that he will undergo surgery tonight at a Philadelphia hospital. The Giants expressed their devastation over losing Skattebo, with many players, including quarterback Jaxson Dart, sharing their emotional responses. In the wake of this injury, Tyrone Tracy Jr. has emerged as a top waiver wire pickup for fantasy football, as the team now faces the challenge of replacing Skattebo for the remainder of the season. NFL officials are also reviewing contentious plays surrounding the incident, further adding to the tumultuous atmosphere following the game.
