Newer update on Cam Skattebo: Tyrone Tracy scores, works back into Giants' rotation in Week 6 vs. Saints

Cam Skattebo Limited Wednesday With Shoulder Issue

Giants RB Cam Skattebo was officially limited in practice Wednesday and seen wearing a non-contact jersey.

By Cole Hartwell

Cam Skattebo was officially limited in Wednesday’s practice due to a shoulder issue, according to Underdog NFL. The Giants running back was also spotted wearing a non-contact jersey during the session, via Art Stapleton of The Record.

Skattebo enters Week 5 as the RB1 on the depth chart and played 64% of the snaps in Week 4. He has no injury designation heading into this week’s game, but his practice status will be worth monitoring.

What happened

Underdog NFL reported that Skattebo (shoulder) was officially limited in practice on Wednesday. In addition, he was seen wearing a non-contact jersey at practice, a common precaution for players managing injuries.

Skattebo has been the Giants’ lead back, seeing at least 59% of the snaps in three of four games this season. His Week 4 usage included 18 carries for 58 rushing yards and one catch for eight receiving yards.

Context

Skattebo is in his first NFL season at age 24 and has delivered 44.2 PPR points through four games. He has totaled 235 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown, adding eight receptions for 67 yards.

The Giants have relied on him as a three-down option, with his snap share ranging from 59% to 77% over the past three weeks. His receiving work provides a stable floor in PPR formats.

What’s next

The Giants will practice again on Thursday and Friday before their Week 5 matchup. Skattebo’s participation level in those sessions will clarify his availability for Sunday.

🏈 Fantasy impact

Skattebo’s limited practice and non-contact jersey suggest he is managing a shoulder issue, but he has no game designation yet. Fantasy managers should treat him as a game-time decision until the Giants release their official injury report. If active, Skattebo remains a low-end RB2/flex given his volume and receiving role. If he is ruled out or limited, the Giants would likely turn to their backup backfield, but no specific replacement was mentioned in the reports. Monitor Thursday and Friday practice reports before setting lineups.
