Skattebo suffered the injury against the Philadelphia Eagles and ended his rookie season with a stat line of 101 carries, 410 rushing yards, and five touchdowns in eight games.

Ward played for three teams in his eight-year career. He earned three Pro Bowl nods and was part of the Super Bowl 50-winning Denver Broncos squad.

Cam Skattebo is aiming for a 2026 return

According to USA Today, Skattebo's injury isn't expected to impact him entering the 2026 season. Reports suggest the Arizona State product is expected to be sidelined for only 4-6 months.

This estimate aligns with the Giants' offseason team schedule. So, there's a solid chance that Skattebo would be healthy to start the 2026 regular season despite the worrisome nature of his injury.

"If all is good and clean and the surgery went as well as everyone believes, he should be back with no issues for next year," NFL insider Ian Rapoport said.

"It is a gruesome injury, but the recovery is actually not as bad. We have seen several others with similar injuries come back and play the next year. Dak Prescott comes to mind. So, (it is) 2026 for Cam Skattebo."

In the meantime, the Giants will look to put an end to their five-game losing streak when they face the Detroit Lions in Week 12.
