Cam Skattebo has expressed confidence in addressing the New York Giants' running back issues following their unsuccessful trade talks with the Indianapolis Colts for Jonathan Taylor. Analyst Louis Riddick questioned Skattebo’s claims, suggesting that the Giants may seek additional help due to his current performance statistics. Skattebo has had a limited impact this season, scoring two touchdowns and running for 418 yards at an average of 4.3 yards per carry. He has also faced challenges this season, including a recent hamstring injury and being benched due to a fumble. Riddick referred to Skattebo as a complementary back rather than a primary option in the offense.
