New York Giants rookie running back Cam Skattebo suffered a significant-looking ankle injury during his team's Week 8 game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
The injury occurred as Skattebo tried to make a catch over the middle of the field from Jaxson Dart. Eagles linebacker Zack Baun grabbed him just as the ball was arriving and twisted him to the ground.
Skattebo's legs got caught underneath him as he was tackled. When he came up, his right ankle appeared to be facing the wrong direction.

Skattebo was tended to by Giants medical staff on the field after his injury. He was then carted into the locker room with his right leg in an air cast.

Cam Skattebo injury update
The Giants announced Skattebo suffered an ankle dislocation and will undergo surgery to repair the injury at a Philadelphia-area hospital. The team originally announced Skattebo had been taken to a local hospital for further evaluation after suffering the injury.
Giants coach Brian Daboll did not have much of an update on Skattebo when asked about him after the game.
"I feel absolutely terrible for the young man," Daboll said.
The Giants announced just before halftime Skattebo had been ruled out for the game because of his ankle injury.
Skattebo had three carries for 12 yards before exiting the game. He also added an 18-yard touchdown reception on his lone catch of the game.
