Giants’ Cam Skattebo threw up a pretzel-wrapped hot dog in 2-touchdown effort vs. Commanders

New York Giants and former Arizona State Sun Devils running back Cam Skattebo made headlines on Thursday Night Football against the Washington Commanders.

It could’ve been for his two touchdowns or his bruising running for 78 yards on 18 carries. Instead, it was for throwing up on the sideline between the first and second quarters.

Why was Skattebo throwing up?

“I had a pretzel-wrapped hot dog. It didn’t sit right in the stomach. Nothing crazy. Got rid of it. Felt good after,” he told reporters after the game.

Skattebo ate the pretzel-wrapped hot dog before the game, and it didn’t make it into the second quarter. It wasn’t the first time Skattebo was seen throwing up during a big game. The running back puked multiple times in the Peach Bowl when ASU faced Texas in 2025, and he racked up 284 total yards and three total touchdowns on 39 touches, including one pass.

In addition to Skattebo’s between-quarters hurl, the always-entertaining former Sun Devil showed up to the stadium in a custom Giants-themed Iron Man mask and then stared down the sky cam at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

And the night wouldn’t be complete with a Skattebo backflip. In fact, the running back had his teammates joining in on the fun against the Commanders.
