NY Giants' Cam Skattebo might play in final preseason game: What to know
Former Arizona State star running back Cam Skattebo could suit up for the New York Giants' preseason finale, Thursday, Aug. 21, and is now more likely to play in Week 1. The do-everything standout for last season's Big 12 champion Sun Devils was cleared to return to practice for the Giants on Tuesday, Aug. 19, Giants coach Brian Daboll told reporters, and reports indicate things are looking good. Skattebo, whose nagging hamstring injury caused him to miss several practices and the Giants' first two preseason games, sits at No. 3 on the running back depth chart. Skattebo was "on the field (Tuesday, Aug. 19) and was involved in team drills." Cam Skattebo's status changes: New York Giants practice update When will Cam Skattebo play? Skattebo's return to practice ahead of the team's preseason finale Thursday, Aug. 21, against the New England Patriots indicates he has a chance to start the season on time, Sept. 7 at the Washington Commanders. He also could play in the preseason game that kicks off at 5 p.m. MST (8 p.m. Eastern). The Skattebo health trending is looking up, according to a report after Tuesday practice from the Giants. Art Stapleton, Giants beat writer for said Skattebo "did more today in team drills than either Andrew Thomas or Malik Nabers. That's not a bad thing for AT or Nabers, just a good thing worth noting for Skattebo and the Giants." Running backs Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Devin Singletary are listed ahead of Skattebo. 'Better than advertised': Cam Skattebo turns heads at Giants training camp Is Cam Skattebo playing against the Patriots? Skattebo, a fourth-round pick by the Giants, has missed much of training camp. Daboll indicated before the Aug. 19 practice that Skattebo's participation could be limited, but it was encouraging news nonetheless for a player expected to receive a healthy dose of touches this season. The Giants will consider resting Skattebo for their final preseason game, Thursday, Aug. 21, at home against the New England Patriots but Stapleton, during his podcast published Wednesday morning, Aug. 20, said, "It would not shock me to see him make a cameo" in the preseason finale. "I'm not talking a full load, but maybe a couple snaps," Stapleton said. "... He was running yesterday and it did not look like he was encumbered in any way." There had been concerns that Skattebo's hamstring issue could result in him being placed on injured reserve after final roster cutdowns on Aug. 26. Such a move would require Skattebo to miss the first four weeks of the regular season. Placing him on IR before the squad is trimmed to 53 would force him to miss the entire 2025 season. That concern has been dramatically altered, however, with the news that Skattebo returned to practice and reportedly performed well. Skattebo set the Arizona State single-season record last year with 1,711 yards. He also scored 21 touchdowns, became the first player in school history to amass 2,000 or more yards from scrimmage in a single season and finished fifth in balloting for the Heisman Trophy.

Jake Paul names Tank Davis as next boxing opponent
Jake Paul and Tank Davis are ready rumble in the boxing ring — at least, exhibition style. On Wednesday, Aug. 20, Paul posted on his X account a fight-style poster featuring him and Davis and showing the fight is set for Nov. 14 at State Farm Arena in Atlanta and will be carried by Netflix. REQUIRED READING: Jake Paul 'frontrunner' to fight Anthony Joshua next, says Joshua's promoter "Gervonta who has been disrespecting my name for too long,'' Paul wrote in the post. "His nickname might be Tank, but I'm an FPV drone and I'm about to disable tiny boy. Yes, he's (one) of the top pound-for-pound boxers in the world, but my motto is anyone, anytime, anyplace, against all odds. And I like my odds.'' So much for picking on someone your own size. Paul is 6 feet, 1 inch tall and fought last at 200 pounds. Davis is 5 feet, 5 1/2 inches, and fought last at 135 pounds. That would give Paul an advantage of 7 1/2 inches and 65 pounds. But there's a reason they call Davis 'Tank.'' He hits like one. Davis, the WBA lightweight world champion, is 30-0-1 with 28 KOs over his career. He's coming off of a majority draw against Lamont Roach Jr., and the 30-year-old southpaw is a marketable heavy hitter. Following Paul's announcement on X, Most Valuable Promotions issued a release confirming the fight for Friday, Nov. 14. Said Paul in the release: "Jake vs. Tank is the culmination of four years of callouts and a brewing rivalry between Paul, the sport's most-watched fighter whose showmanship has redefined boxing promotion, and Davis, one of the most feared punchers in the world and widely regarded as the Mike Tyson of his generation," the release reads. "Paul and Davis, the favorite boxers of Gen Alpha and Gen Z, respectively, have both battled to claim the title of modern boxing's biggest star, setting the stage for this monumental showdown." Paul (12-1, 7 KOs) is coming off a victory over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. by unanimous decision. Although he has stressed he wants to win a world championship, this exhibition suggests he remains interested in big paydays. In reacting to the news, Ryan Garcia wrote on his X account, "Boxing is officially the WWE.'' The Ring initially reported the two boxers had agreed to an exhibition fight on Monday, Aug. 18.

Paul and Gervonta 'Tank' Davis are set to face off in a highly anticipated boxing match on Nov.14 at State Farm Arena in Atlanta. The fight will be streamed globally on Netflix. This showdown features Jake 'El Gallo de Dorado' Paul, ranked No. 14 by the World Boxing Association in the cruiserweight division, against the undefeated three-division champion Davis. Paul rose to fame as an influencer on social media before starting his career in boxing. His exhibition with Mike Tyson, also on Netflix, became the most streamed live sporting event of all time. Rules on time for rounds and wight were not immediately revealed. Davis is the more seasoned boxer but fights at a weight class far below Paul.

The event is organized by Most Valuable Promotions, co-founded by Paul, marking their third live event on Netflix within a year.
