New York Giants rookie running back Cam Skattebo has suffered a major setback after dislocating his right ankle during Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles. The injury occurred in the second quarter when he landed awkwardly while reaching for a pass from quarterback Jaxson Dart.
Medical staff immediately ran onto the field as Skattebo clutched his ankle in pain. He was fitted with an air cast before being carted off the field, raising his arm to acknowledge the crowd's applause. The atmosphere inside Lincoln Financial Field shifted quickly as both teams gathered around in concern. According to Reuters, he was taken to a local hospital shortly after the incident and underwent surgery later that evening.
