The fourth quarter of a competitive “Thursday Night Football” game between the Washington Commanders and New York Giants began with a haunting sight for the folks at home.
Giants running back Cam Skattebo, never one for walking the beaten path, spent at least 10 seconds staring down the Prime Video cameras for reasons known only to him. Prime’s Al Michaels was at least entertained, laughing and remarking “He knows where the camera is.”
Skattebo had 59 rushing yards, 44 receiving yards and two touchdowns on the ground at the time, so he also did this during a fairly productive game. Up until that point, we thought the oddest thing about Skattebo’s night would have been him breaking into laughter after throwing up on the sideline.
Skattebo was something of a question mark entering Thursday after sustaining a hamstring tear in Week 7, forcing him to miss the Giants’ win over the Philadelphia Eagles last week.
In his first seven games of the season, the former fourth-round pick had 418 rushing yards, two rushing touchdowns and 76 receiving yards. He doubled that touchdown total on Thursday.
