Giants' Cam Skattebo Gets Honest About Return After Season-Ending Injury

Cam Skattebo got honest about how last year's season-ending injury affects him now that he's back on the field for the Giants.

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo is set to return from his season-ending injury, which occurred in Week 8 against the Philadelphia Eagles. The injury initially resulted in a dislocated right ankle, an open tibia fracture, a fractured fibula, and a ruptured deltoid ligament. Skattebo, 24, is currently practicing and participating in preseason football with the team.

On Monday, the player mentioned that the previous injury is not a constant thought in his mind. Skattebo had limited playing time in the Giants' first preseason game, gaining 19 yards on four carries. His rookie season included 410 yards and five touchdowns through the air and 207 yards and four touchdowns on the ground. Skattebo's return is expected alongside Malik Nabers, another young star receiver who suffered a torn ACL and meniscus injury last season.
