Cameron Skattebo, born February 5, 2002, is an American professional football running back currently playing for the New York Giants in the National Football League (NFL). He was selected by the Giants in the fourth round of the 2025 NFL Draft. Skattebo stands 5 feet 11 inches tall and weighs 215 pounds[1][2][3].

In his junior year, he rushed for 3,550 yards and scored 42 touchdowns, leading his team to a state championship[1][4]. Despite a limited number of Division I scholarship offers, he initially committed to Sacramento State, where he continued to excel with impressive rushing performances including multiple games over 200 yards[4]. He later transferred to Arizona State University, where he solidified his reputation as a top collegiate running back. By 2023, Skattebo was among the nation’s leading rushers, ranking ninth in career rushing yards among active FBS and FCS running backs with 3,755 yards and maintaining a 6.2 yards per carry average.

In 2023, he ranked highly in all-purpose yards and was recognized for his resilience and leadership on the field, notably guiding Arizona State to the College Football Playoff despite the program’s underdog status[5][6]. Skattebo’s college career was marked by standout performances, including a memorable game against Texas where he overcame physical adversity to deliver a heroic effort, earning him the offensive MVP award despite his team’s loss[6]. His combination of power, agility, and toughness has made him a promising talent as he begins his professional career with the Giants[1][2][6].
