Cam Skattebo, the Giants' running back, has a long journey ahead after a serious ankle injury. He didn't just dislocate his ankle; he also fractured his fibula and tore a key ligament. This happened during a game against the Eagles, and he went straight from the field to surgery.
The good news is that the surgery went smoothly. Doctors fixed his fractures and repaired the torn ligament. The team expects him to be back for offseason work, but that's still a long way off. For now, he's on injured reserve, which means he won't play for the rest of the season.
Before the injury, Skattebo had a decent season. He rushed for 410 yards and scored five touchdowns. Now, the Giants will rely on other running backs like Tyrone Tracy and Devin Singletary to fill the gap.
This injury is a big setback for Skattebo. It's not just about missing games; it's about the long recovery process. He'll need time to heal and rehab, and there's no guarantee he'll be the same player when he returns.
For the Giants, this is a chance to see what other players can do. It's also a reminder of how fragile an NFL career can be. One play can change everything.
