Cam Skattebo
vs Garrett Wilson

“Cam Skattebo is getting nearly every touch in this backfield, with 46 more touches this season than Najee Harris , the Giants’ No. 2 RB. We haven’t seen much touchdown luck yet, and that total will likely remain relatively low in this offense.”

“Cam Skattebo is the top option and veteran RB Najee Harris has ascended to the No. 2 role. Tracy has kept a spot on the active roster because he can contribute as a kickoff returner but he’s had just one touch each of the past two weeks. He’s still on a rookie contract and has flashed some explosiveness as a rusher and receiver his first two years.”

“If Jeanty struggles against the Dolphins, it will be a long season once again for Jeanty owners.” – Muntradamus ( Beast Dome ) Cam Skattebo (RB – NYG) “I don’t know about “likely” to disappoint, but there’s certainly a chance that Cam Skattebo could leave his investors wanting for more.”

“Skattebo was a highlight from the group of New York backs in 2025, turning 125 touches into 617 yards and 7 touchdowns in his eight appearances. Skattebo had the best rushing success rate (39.6%) of the backs, compared to a 37% rate for Devin Singletary and a 31.8% rate for Tyrone Tracy.”

“Everyone hopes that Skattebo can stay healthy after missing over half is rookie season with a gruesome ankle injury. Yet, the star running back recently said he won’t change his playing style.”

“Obviously, for this to happen, Cam Skattebo would need to avoid the injury bug and play a full season. Tough ask with his running style. But when he was on the field, he showed elite metrics.”

“When given an opportunity to handle the early-down work for Big Blue last season, Skattebo finished as an RB1 in three of five weeks. Not only does he have a nose for the end zone and constantly runs through arm tackles, he is also an adept receiver, and one of Jaxson Dart ‘s best friends.”

“Garrett Wilson will vacuum up the targets in his absence.”

“According to the Fantasy Points Data Suite 2.0, Wilson has rock-solid or better marks of a 21.5% target share, 0.24 targets per route run (TPRR), 33.3% first-read rate and 37.5% air yard share this season. Mitchell’s 25% first-read rate trails behind Wilson’s. However, Mitchell is pacing the Jets in target share (23.1%), targets per route run (0.26 TPRR) among players with at least 30 routes and air yard share (59.4%).”

“Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic pointed out that Wilson led all Jets receivers with 42 targets during camp — the next closest was Adonai Mitchell with 27. I don’t think Smith will suddenly find the fountain of youth, but if he plays with remote levels of competence, volume alone should drive Wilson into low-end WR1 territory without issues.”

“Wilson is cheaper, his QB situation is better, and his early schedule is the second-easiest. This might finally be the year I’m buying.”

“his counterpart for the Jets, Garrett Wilson, is coming off a much less severe season-ending injury. Potentially playing with the best QB of his career in Geno Smith.”

“Honorable mention: DeVonta Smith and Luther Burden .” – Mark Ringo ( Sleepers and Busts ) Garrett Wilson (WR – NYJ) “ Garrett Wilson is an elite talent stuck on a team lacking elite quarterback play.”

“Garrett Wilson will easily lead the Jets in targets if he stays healthy.”

“Add in the fact that Wilson has more competition than ever — first-round tight end Kenyon Saddiq, first-round receiver Omar Cooper Jr., and Adonai Mitchell, who the team acquired last year in the Sauce Gardner deal — and I’m just feeling faded by the Jets’ leading wideout.”
