Overview
- Last weekend at Fanatics Fest, Skattebo attempted his signature on‑stage backflip, failed to stick the landing and fell in a clip that went viral.
- On Tuesday on the Bleav in Giants podcast, coach John Harbaugh laughed at the video and told Skattebo to “at least stick it,” while saying he planned to speak with the player privately.
- Harbaugh said Skattebo has been training hard and is expected to be ready for camp, a view supported by team reporting that the running back is trending toward full participation.
- Skattebo, who said he is “perfectly fine,” is still recovering from a severe Oct. 26, 2025 leg injury that included an open tibia fracture, a ruptured deltoid ligament and a dislocated right ankle.
- The viral clip drew criticism for what critics called a reckless stunt given his prior injury, and the team will likely balance public lightheartedness with private steps to limit risky off‑field behavior to protect a key roster piece.
