Running back Cam Skattebo suffered a dislocated ankle with 8:07 left in the second quarter of Sunday’s game against the Eagles in Philadelphia. He was taken to a local hospital for further evaluation.
Skattebo is scheduled to undergo surgery Sunday night at a local hospital in the Philadelphia area.
Before the injury, the rookie had three carries for 12 yards and one catch that he took 18 yards for a touchdown.
“I feel absolutely terrible for the young man,” coach Brian Daboll said after the game. “Obviously, saw it looked bad. I know you feel for anybody on your team that goes down and has a really bad injury … and I know the players feel the same way about him.”
“I was devastated,” said quarterback Jaxson Dart, his 2025 draft classmante. “It’s my boy, man, so seeing him go down and obviously reacting to what happened, that sucks. It’s the worst part of this game.”
Skattebo, a fourth-round pick from Arizona State, entered Week 8 leading all NFL rookies in yards from scrimmage and touchdowns.
Tight end Daniel Bellinger (neck) and cornerbacks Cor’Dale Flott (concussion) and Art Green (hamstring) also suffered injuries during the game.
