Cameron Skattebo, the bruising running back from Rio Linda High School by way of Arizona State, has inked his rookie contract with the New York Giants. The deal comes after the Giants selected him in the fourth round of the 2025 NFL Draft.

A native of Rio Linda, Skattebo was a standout player for the Sun Devils, known for his powerful running style and versatility.
