Cam Skattebo won't change running style after rare penalty in Giants' win
CBS Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- Giants running back Cam Skattebo was penalized for unnecessary roughness after lowering his helmet to initiate contact during a Week 7 game, a rare penalty for an offensive player this season.
- Despite the penalty, Skattebo stated he will not change his aggressive running style, even if it leads to more flags or fines.
- This was Skattebo's first career penalty for lowering his helmet, but officials are likely to monitor him closely moving forward.
- Giants coach John Harbaugh may disapprove of Skattebo's approach if penalties continue, especially since the running back has already faced limited playing time earlier this season.
- Skattebo's strong performance against the Texans, with 124 rushing yards and a touchdown, shows his value, but avoiding future penalties might require some adjustment to his running style.
