Giants' Skattebo carted off with serious leg injury
"New York Giants rookie running back Cam Skattebo was carted off the field Sunday midway through the second quarter against the Philadelphia Eagles with a gruesome lower right leg injury. Skattebo's right ankle got caught underneath an Eagles player as he tried to catch a pass over the middle of the field. His right ankle was facing in the wrong direction."
"Players for both teams were immediately aware it was a serious injury. One Eagles player immediately ran away from the area and off the field. Several Giants turned away from Skattebo in order not to look at the injury. Rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, who has quickly become a close friend, was yelling in frustration. Skattebo, a fourth-round pick earlier this year, was taken off the field on a cart. The Philadelphia crowd gave him a standing ovation."

Skattebo's right ankle got caught underneath an Eagles player as he tried to catch a pass over the middle of the field; his ankle was facing in the wrong direction. Players reacted immediately, with one Eagles player running off the field and several Giants turning away. Rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart called out in frustration. Skattebo had scored his seventh touchdown earlier on an 18-yard pass from Dart, and the Philadelphia crowd gave him a standing ovation. The injury compounds Giants offensive losses, already missing Malik Nabers to a torn ACL.
