Cam Skattebo is currently gearing up for his rookie year with the Giants after making a name for himself in college at Arizona State. The running back obviously knows a thing or two about football, but he apparently has some work to do when it comes to familiarizing himself with some former NFL stars based on a viral clip where he tried (and largely failed) to name them by looking at their picture.
Sports fans tend to be all too aware of the inevitable passage of time based on the stages they go through over the decades.
Most people grow up idolizing players who seem like larger-than-life figures while hearing their parents compare them to stars they never saw play, accept they’ll never be a pro athlete by the time people their age start doing do their thing in college, and eventually reach a point where they’re forced to grapple with the reality that the children of players they watched when you were younger are pursuing their own career as the cycle starts anew.
Millennials and members of even older generations have firmly reached that third stage as members of Gen Z have slowly but surely moved toward earning a majority share when it comes to the current class of professional athletes.
That includes Cam Skattebo, the 23-year-old running back born in 2002 who was selected by the Giants in the fourth round of this year’s draft following a stellar senior season at Arizona State.
The rookie recently sat down with Amon-Ra St. Brown for a conversation on the wide receiver’s podcast where Skattebo got the chance to participate in the “You Don’t Know Ball” segment that tasked him with naming a number of former NFL players by looking at their picture.

It was not the most inspiring performance, as he was unable to name two Pro Football Hall of Famers in the form of Calvin Johnson and Brett Favre. He also whiffed on Golden Tate and Marques Colston and needed some help to get Kam Chancellor and Darren Sproles (the second of whom he’d name-dropped earlier on the podcast).
Ouch.
