Cam Skattebo Injury: Targeting return for camp

Skattebo (ankle) said Monday that his long-term goal is to be back to full health by the start of training camp in late July, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.

His rookie season came to an end in Week 8 due to a dislocated right ankle that required surgery, but Skattebo is progressing well in his recovery. He said he has no plans of rushing things to make it back on the field for OTAs in the spring, however. Given the severe nature of his injury, Skattebo isn't guaranteed to be ready for the start of camp either, but the Giants should have a clearer idea of where the running back stands once he starts ramping up the intensity of his rehab. Skattebo's role in 2026 will hinge on how quickly he can regain his pre-surgery explosiveness. The Arizona State product was dynamic as both a runner and a pass-catcher over his eight appearances, accounting for 410 rushing yards and five touchdowns on 101 carries with 207 receiving yards and two more scores on 24 catches.
