Cam Skattebo, Quinshon Judkins and Saquon Barkley were among the NFL players who were hurt in Week 8. Players injured in Week 8 will be evaluated this week to determine the extent of their injuries and potential timelines for return.
Patrick Surtain II, Ed Oliver, Trey Hendrickson and Derrick Brown were among other notable players to exit early during Sunday’s wave of football action.
The New York Giants said Skattebo sustained a dislocated right ankle in the second quarter of their 38-20 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday in Philadelphia. Skattebo underwent surgery on the ankle Sunday night.
A league source told UPI that Skattebo is out indefinitely due to the long-term nature of his injury.
“I feel absolutely terrible for the young man,” Giants coach Brian Daboll told reporters. “Obviously, you saw it. It looked bad. You feel for anybody on your team that goes down and has a really bad injury.”

Skattebo totaled 12 yards on three carries. He also caught an 18-yard touchdown pass. The fourth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft logged 617 yards from scrimmage and seven scores over the first eight games of his NFL career.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Devin Singletary are the other running backs on the Giants roster. Tracy ran for 39 yards on 10 carries and caught two passes for 14 yards Sunday in Philadelphia.
Tight end Daniel Bellinger (neck) and cornerbacks Art Green (hamstring) and Cordale Flott (concussion) were among the other Giants players to exit early.
Eagles star running back Saquon Barkley sustained a groin injury in the third quarter and did not return. He said on the Fox postgame broadcast that he is “good” and cited the Eagles’ large lead when asked about his exit.
Barkley erupted for 174 yards from scrimmage and two scores, including a 65-yard run on the second snap of the day. Eagles backup Tank Bigsby ran for 104 yards on nine carries, with most of his work coming after Barkley’s exit.
