New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo vomited on the sideline during a 24-21 loss to Washington after eating a pretzel-wrapped hot dog before the game.

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo vomited on the sideline during the team's 24-21 home loss to the Washington Commanders on Thursday. The incident occurred between the first and second quarters, with sideline reporter Kaylee Hartung noting that Skattebo leaned over and threw up at his feet onto the turf whilst sitting on the Giants' bench. The medical staff tended to him, and he soon smiled and laughed before covering the mess with a towel.

Skattebo attributed the incident to his pregame meal. "I had a pretzel-wrapped hot dog. Didn't sit right in the stomach. Nothing crazy, got rid of it. Felt good after," he said after the game. He indicated this was not the first time a pregame meal had affected him during competition.

Despite the vomiting, Skattebo performed well in the game, recording 18 carries for 78 yards and two touchdowns, along with three catches for 44 yards. The Giants nonetheless lost the contest after wasting a fourth-quarter lead.
