Commanders-giants: Cam Skattebo Refuses To Be Normal, Stares Into Camera During 'thursday Night Football'

The fourth quarter of the Washington Commanders' dramatic 24-21 victory over the New York Giants Thursday 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 finished with 78 rushing yards, 44 receiving yards and two rushing touchdowns, 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. He explained after the game he had eaten a pretzel-wrapped hot dog before the game that didn’t sit well.

Not to be outdone on the weird scale, Giants quarterback Jameis Winston was later heard singing "Who Let the Dogs Out" while attempting to draw the Commanders offside.

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.
