Giants’ Cam Skattebo leads team with touchdown despite sideline illness
Cam Skattebo scored a touchdown to give the Giants a 14-10 lead after vomiting on the sideline during Thursday Night Football.
During the Week 10 Thursday Night Football game, Giants running back Cam Skattebo scored his second touchdown, a 13-yard run that put New York ahead 14-10 over the Washington Commanders, Yahoo Sports reported.
Earlier in the game, Skattebo vomited on the sideline, an incident not shown on the broadcast but reported by sideline reporter Kaylee Hartung and later captured on video by the broadcast's official social media channel, according to Yahoo Sports.
Medical staff attended to Skattebo after he threw up, but he was soon smiling and laughing, covering the area with a towel. The broadcast commentators reacted with humor to the incident, indicating he was feeling better.
Skattebo's performance included 10 carries for 55 yards and two catches for 37 yards. Giants safety Jason Pinnock was noted as questionable to return due to a back injury.
The Commanders struggled on their ensuing possession after the touchdown, facing a third-and-28 and eventually punting, which allowed the Giants to extend their lead with Skattebo's touchdown drive.
Skattebo's unusual sideline behavior, including wearing an Iron Man helmet earlier in the game, has made him a notable figure during the matchup, drawing attention from commentators and fans alike.
