Just when you thought the news on Cam Skattebo couldn\u2019t get any worse, more would surface less than 24 hours after\u00a0he suffered a gruesome-looking ankle injury<\/a>\u00a0in the second quarter of the Giants\u2019 loss to the Eagles.<\/p>\n

The rookie running back\u2019s legs got caught underneath him as he was tackled, and he snapped his ankle in half. When he came up, his right ankle appeared to be facing the wrong direction.<\/p>\n

Despite his condition, he somehow thought it was a good idea to\u00a0enlist the help of a teammate to get him on his feet.<\/a>\u00a0Luckily, that teammate did not oblige.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, it appears that his injury is worse than previously thought.<\/p>\n

Jeff Mueller, a doctor of Physical Therapy, took to X and wrote that an open dislocation was confirmed for Cam Skattebo, which explained the emergency surgery he had to go through that same night.<\/p>\n

\u201cMain concerns open vs closed: Higher infection risk, likely higher soft tissue trauma, higher risk of nerve damage. While risk is higher, still has a good chance to return to form for 2026,\u201d<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0Mueller added.<\/p>\n
