Overview
- New York confirmed Skattebo sustained a dislocated right ankle, was placed in an air cast, carted off and transported to a local hospital, and was ruled out for the game.
- The injury occurred in the second quarter on a pass breakup by Eagles linebacker Zack Baun, with Skattebo’s foot appearing to stick in the turf and twist underneath him.
- Players and coaches showed immediate concern as teammates from both teams gathered, and quarterback Jaxson Dart was visibly distraught while the Philadelphia crowd applauded Skattebo as he left.
- Medical observers on social media said the injury likely requires surgery and could end his season, but the team has not announced a treatment plan or timeline pending imaging.
- With Skattebo sidelined, Tyrone Tracy Jr. took over backfield duties and Devin Singletary is expected to see increased work as New York assesses its depth.
