There has been a lot of talk surrounding New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart and changing his style of play to avoid getting injured during a game.
But that’s been less the case for running back Cam Skattebo, who is entering his second season in the NFL after having his rookie year cut short due to a gruesome ankle injury. Skattebo said Wednesday that he also has no plans to change his playing style.

“It’s not going to change who I am,” he said on NFL Network’s “The Insiders.” “I had an injury, that’s what it is. I still have a lot of football left, a lot of life. I’m not going to let this little ankle thing bother me.
“I’m going to start crushing people again. It’ll be normal Cam Skattebo from now on.”

Skattebo’s smashmouth style of play earned him praise from Giants fans during the 2025 season. If there was another positive aside from Dart’s emergence, it was Skattebo.
He totaled 410 rushing yards and five touchdowns along with 24 catches for 207 yards and two receiving touchdowns in eight games for New York.
During his time away, he received criticism for tangling with WWE star JD McDonagh during an episode of “Monday Night Raw.”

As time goes on, Skattebo should be on the field and stay on the field to help the Giants return to glory, well, at least in playoff contention, in 2026.
