Cam Skattebo ‘felt great’ in first game action since gruesome injury
Cam Skattebo talks about getting back on the field after his injury.
New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo showcased strong performance in his first game action following a severe ankle injury that ended his rookie season. During a preseason match against the Minnesota Vikings, Skattebo started and contributed 19 yards on just four carries, displaying his former physicality. "I felt great," Skattebo remarked after practice, noting he had made minor errors that he plans to refine.
The recovery process has been relatively straightforward, despite the initial media frenzy around his over-rotated backflip. Coach John Harbaugh acknowledges Skattebo's ongoing improvement, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing between being "hurt" and "injured." Skattebo's celebrity status in New York has been a double-edged sword, but he embraces the attention.
Despite potential concerns about his aggressive playing style, Skattebo remains committed to refining his techniques while maintaining his competitive edge.
