New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo alarmed fans after slipping while attempting a backflip at Fanatics Fest over the weekend, just ahead of the team's training camp. The moment drew concern because Skattebo's rookie season was cut short by a dislocated ankle, and his trademark backflips, usually performed after touchdowns, had made him a fan favourite in New York.

Giants head coach John Harbaugh addressed the scare in comments made around the incident, as fans and reporters watched closely given Skattebo's recent injury history. The Arizona State product is expected to be a key figure for the Giants heading into camp, and the slip has heightened attention on his fitness and readiness before the new season begins.
