Short answer: the wiki doesn't actually record a specific game where Skattebo got zero touches — his Week 1 return went the other way (18 carries, 81 yards, 1 TD vs. Dallas). What the wiki does document is the backfield shifting into a committee, which is the most likely culprit for any goose-egg week.
The big change: the Giants signed Najee Harris on a one-year deal in August, and the Najee Harris page notes he's a 242-lb power back who fits John Harbaugh's preference for big, physical runners (Derrick Henry, Mark Ingram types) — expected to take early-down, goal-line, and pass-protection work while Skattebo keeps the explosive role (from the Najee Harris page).
Experts have been flagging the split all along:
- Flock Fantasy (Week 3): "Skattebo is now in a low-scoring game... he played 59% of the playing time last week, because this team, for some reason, decided they needed to use Najee Harris." —
- Establish The Run: "I don't know that the Giants view him [Skattebo] that way... he's very interchangeable from a skill set standpoint with Najee Harris, who's been getting first team reps." —
So the documented story is a workload split trending toward Harris, not a benching — but if you're referencing a specific recent week where he literally touched the ball zero times, that game isn't covered in the wiki yet.
