Giants Rookie Cam Skattebo Steps Into Bigger Role After Week 3 Breakout

Tyrone Tracy Jr. is projected to miss 2–4 weeks with a dislocated shoulder, putting the rookie in position for an expanded workload.

Overview

  • Skattebo posted 121 total yards against the Chiefs with 60 rushing yards on 10 carries, a 13-yard touchdown, and six receptions for 61 yards.
  • ESPN’s Jordan Raanan reported Tracy’s expected 2–4 week timeline, creating short‑term opportunity in New York’s backfield.
  • The rookie had limited touches in Weeks 1–2 before seizing an expanded role on Sunday Night Football.
  • Devin Singletary remains in the rotation as coaches weigh weekly plans, but usage is poised to tilt toward Skattebo while Tracy heals.
