Cam Skattebo targets larger workload for Giants entering 2026 season

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo enters the 2026 season stating he is prepared for a significant increase in his workload. Skattebo’s rookie campaign ended after eight games due to multiple injuries, including a dislocated ankle, a fractured fibula, and a ruptured deltoid ligament sustained during a loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. During his first year, he averaged 12.6 carries per game and totaled 410 yards with five touchdowns. The running back noted that conversations with head coach John Harbaugh regarding a potential role of 20-plus carries per game have provided confidence in his return to the field. He is slated for increased involvement beginning with the team's upcoming Sunday Night Football appearance. Despite questions surrounding his health following an offseason ankle injury, Skattebo stated he is physically ready for the start of the season.
