Cam Skattebo's fantasy role in Week 8
Cam Skattebo goes into Week 8 of the 2026 season as a bench stash most leagues are holding for the NYG. He is rostered in 92% of leagues and actually started in 28% of them, and we rank him RB30 on our own weekly board at 6.4 projected points.
Interest is climbing — roster rates moved up about 1% over the last week, which usually means managers are reacting to a bigger snap or target share.
Health matters here: he carries a QUESTIONABLE designation, so have a replacement ready until his status is resolved.
Week 8 matchup breakdown
The NYG are on bye in Week 8, so there is no matchup to grade. Anyone holding him needs a one-week fill-in from the waiver wire.
How to play it
Cam Skattebo is on bye in Week 8 — replace him and revisit next week.
Use the waiver wire for a one-week plug and keep him on your bench if you are otherwise healthy at RB.
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Cam Skattebo (NYG RB), our RB30 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season (his team is on bye), projecting 6.4 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally's honest about it: 4.6 points under the starter line isn't the ceiling she chases. 28% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. The questionable designation on the timestamp below is the one variable that could blow this up — confirm it Sunday morning. The Pepper Meter cools him to Mild, and that reading is doing its job.
Tina's take

Tina calls it a floor problem: 4.6 points under the starter line is a lot of risk for a lineup spot. 28% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable.
