Cam Skattebo pledges to maintain style despite NFL fines
Summary

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo stated on October 25 that he will not change his physical running style after receiving an unnecessary roughness penalty during the victory over the Houston Texans. Skattebo criticized the NFL for hypocrisy, highlighting that he feels the league promotes his aggressive style on social media while penalizing him for it.
