Cam Skattebo is turning heads for something other than the way he lowers the boom on defenders. The New York Giants running back has a new look, and a side-by-side photo making the rounds online shows just how much his appearance has changed since he entered the NFL.
The earlier image shows Skattebo in his rookie season with a short haircut. The newer photo is a different story entirely, with the former Arizona State star now wearing his hair much longer. The change was enough to set off a wave of reactions online.
One person joked that “The kid from Matilda grew up to be a Giant.” Another predicted, “He’s never gonna cut it again just like Sampson!💪🏽👑” A third wrote, “Lookin like Bam Margera,” while another comment read, “That mfr will Run yo a** smooth over lols,” and one fan simply said, “That’s evil Skat,”
Skattebo’s look may be different, but the Giants are still expecting the same player on the field. New York picked him in the fourth round of the 2025 NFL Draft after he built a reputation at Arizona State as one of college football’s toughest runners. He quickly won over Giants fans with his physical style and nonstop effort.
His rookie season ended early after a serious ankle injury in Week 8. The injury cut his year short, but Skattebo has since been back in offseason workouts and has made it clear he intends to keep playing the same way when he returns.
A viral recording from May showed him pulling off a backflip at a softball game, another sign he’s likely back at 100 percent. For now, though, it’s the hair, not the hits, that has everyone talking. Whether the long locks last once the regular season arrives is still up in the air.

Von Miller Just Gave Giants Fans Another NFC East Headache
Von Miller has a way of keeping the NFC East talking, and his latest Instagram post did exactly that. The veteran pass-rusher, who spent last season with Washington and still produced at a level that matters, put himself back in the division conversation at a time when Dallas is clearly looking for help up front.
The Cowboys have been trying to rebuild their pass rush after moving Micah Parsons and adding more young talent in the draft, so any hint involving a proven veteran is going to draw attention. For Giants fans, it is another reminder that the division arms race never really slows down, and Millers next move will be watched closely even if he has not said much beyond the post itself.

Giants Fans May Hate How This Dexter Lawrence Move Looks Now
Dexter Lawrences move out of New York is already looking like the kind of deal that can linger in a fan bases memory for a long time. The Giants sent the standout defensive lineman to Cincinnati for a 2026 draft pick, and while the return is still years away, the early buzz around Lawrence has only made the decision feel more consequential from New Yorks side.
In Cincinnati, Lawrence has settled in quickly and taken on a leadership role, with Bengals observers pointing to him as a player who can help reshape the front. The appeal is obvious: he brings the kind of presence that can lift both the run defense and the pass rush, and for a team trying to harden that part of the roster, the fit has been easy to like.
