New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo delivered a heart-stopping moment for fans on Saturday at Fanatics Fest in New York City when he attempted a backflip during a WWE-style entrance and failed to stick the landing.
The second-year back, still working his way back from a season-ending leg injury in 2025 that included a dislocated right ankle, open tibia fracture, and ruptured deltoid ligament, pointed to his surgically repaired leg before launching into the acrobatic move.
Upon landing, Skattebo lost his balance and fell backward awkwardly, sparking immediate concern among observers.

William Saliba Injury Blow Leaves Arsenal Facing Major Defensive Test
Arsenal’s planning for the new season appears to have shifted abruptly, with L’Equipe reporting that William Saliba could miss four to five months after aggravating a long running back issue during France’s World Cup semi-final against Spain. For a side built on control, structure and defensive assurance, that is the sort of absence that changes the geometry of an entire campaign.

That the media reaction was going to be even more absurd than the final scoreline.
I wasn’t wrong.
As England collected their bronze medals, the media outrage flowed.
