New York Giants<\/a> running back Cam Skattebo<\/a> offered a positive update on his recovery from last season’s serious ankle injury during a recent appearance at his youth camp in Mineola.<\/p>\n

The second-year back, who underwent surgery after breaking his right fibula and dislocating his ankle in Week 8 against the Philadelphia Eagles<\/a>, told attendees he is approximately two to three weeks away from feeling fully like himself in his rehabilitation process.<\/p>\n

Skattebo expressed confidence that he will be ready for training camp, aligning with the team’s expectations for his availability ahead of the 2026 season.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month at the Giants’ Town Hall event, Skattebo had boldly targeted a Week 1 return<\/a> against the Dallas Cowboys<\/a>, acknowledging the mental challenges of rebuilding trust after an injured ankle but emphasizing his progress.<\/p>\n

“Obviously, there’s ups and downs in the injury process and coming back and rehabbing, but the mental battle has been the hardest part: Making sure that I trust it fully,” Skattebo said. “I’m a little ways out. Not too far, but I’ll be ready to go. Week 1, I’ll be ready to go.”<\/p>\n

The Arizona State product showed significant promise as a rookie, rushing for 410 yards and five touchdowns in just eight games while adding 207 receiving yards and two scores. Despite some analyst concerns regarding full readiness<\/a> for the season opener, Skattebo remains determined to contribute at a high level in what he hopes will be a breakout 17-game campaign.<\/p>\n
