CBS Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- Cam Skattebo was completely sidelined from the New York Giants' offense in Week 6, recording no carries or targets for the first time in his career despite being active for the game.
- Head coach John Harbaugh stated Skattebo's lack of touches "wasn't by design" and not a benching, explaining that no runs were called when he was on the field.
- Skattebo's demotion is linked to fumbling issues, having fumbled four times this season, including a costly turnover in the previous game against the Washington Commanders.
- The Giants' rushing attack in Week 6 was led by Tyrone Tracy Jr., Devin Singletary, and Najee Harris, with Skattebo completely excluded from the rotation.
- New York faces the Houston Texans in Week 7 before their Week 8 bye, with Skattebo acknowledging he must be ready when called upon despite his recent setbacks.
