Overview
- Skattebo returned to on-field work during the Giants’ mandatory minicamp and performed agility drills, individual routes and, per reporting, began taking live 11-on-11 reps on Monday.
- Head coach John Harbaugh publicly praised Skattebo as a physical, downhill runner but emphasized cautious management of his workload to protect the repaired ankle.
- Harbaugh told Skattebo to stop doing risky celebrations like backflips after a viral May 30 video showed him flipping at a celebrity event.
- Skattebo suffered an open right-ankle dislocation with a tibia fracture and ruptured deltoid ligament on October 26 and required emergency surgery, making staged reintegration medically necessary.
- If he stays healthy through controlled practices at training camp, Skattebo could be a Week 1 option and a high-upside fantasy candidate given his 2025 production and fit in Harbaugh’s physical offense.
