Cam Skattebo scores twice in Week 10 loss to Washington
Fantasy football: Skattebo's two touchdowns lifted his output, but the underlying workload stayed the same. Hold him as a volume-based RB2 with touchdown…
By Fantasy Roundup Staff · November 13, 2026 · Updated November 15, 2026
Cam Skattebo carried 18 times for 78 yards and scored two touchdowns, adding three catches for 44 yards on four targets, in the Giants' 24-21 loss to Washington on Thursday night. He finished with 25.7 half-PPR points in Week 10.
The big game came from the two scores, not from any change in his role. He averaged 16.3 carries and 2.2 targets over his previous six games, so the 18 carries and four targets are right in line with what he had been getting. Treat this as one strong outing until the workload itself grows. He remains a hold as a volume-based RB2 with touchdown variance.

Cam Skattebo
Skattebo's 25.7 half-PPR points were well above the 10.8 a game he averaged over his previous six games, but the difference came from the two touchdowns. His 18 carries and four targets match his usual workload: 16.3 carries and 2.2 targets a game over his previous six games. Over his last three games he is scoring 3.7 half-PPR points a game above what his usage predicts, so some touchdown or big-play luck that may not repeat. The points are real this week, but the role has not changed.
His rushing usage ranks 16th among 121 running backs this season, with a 47 per cent rush success rate (22nd of 111 backs) over his last three games. He has just 0.5 carries inside the 20 a game over that stretch (81st of 115), limiting his scoring chances. The Giants face Jacksonville at home in Week 11. Start Skattebo as a volume-based RB2 in half-PPR formats, with RB3 appeal in standard leagues where the touchdowns matter more.
What to do
• Start Skattebo as a volume-based RB2 in half-PPR leagues, understanding the touchdowns may not repeat every week.
• Standard-scoring managers can use him as an RB3 with touchdown upside from his carry count.
• Hold him through the bye and beyond: the 16 to 18 carries a game give him a safe floor even when he does not score.
