The Giants’ trip to Philadelphia went from bad to worse on Sunday when running back Cam Skattebo went down with a gruesome ankle injury.
With New York already trailing and on the losing end of one particularly frustrating officiating moment, losing its top rushing threat on top of all that was less than ideal.
But beyond his work as the Giants’ leading rusher, Skattebo is also one of the heartbeats of the team. Despite being a rookie, Skattebo has quickly endeared himself to the team, and NFL fans in general, with his nonstop energy.
Fellow Giants rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart was clearly shaken up by Skattebo’s injury, but made sure to see his teammate off with the signature handshake the two share—it ends with a mutual headbutt.
