Girlfriend of Giants Rookie RB Cam Skattebo Sends Message to the NFL Regarding Possible Punishment for Zack Baun – NFL’s Response Leaves Giants and Eagles Fans Stirred

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania – Following the collision that left Giants rookie running back Cam Skattebo with a serious injury during the game against the Philadelphia Eagles, the NFL community has been fiercely debating whether Zack Baun should face disciplinary action. Amid the ongoing discussions, Chloe Rodriguez, Skattebo’s longtime girlfriend, has spoken out with a heartfelt message that moved fans of both teams.

Chloe, who has been by Cam’s side throughout his surgery and recovery, shared that she witnessed Zack Baun visit the hospital with genuine concern and remorse. She urged the NFL to view the situation with compassion, emphasizing that the play was not intentional and that punishing Baun would serve no purpose.

“I saw him come in, and in his eyes, I didn’t see fear — I saw guilt. He didn’t mean to hurt anyone; it was just an unfortunate moment in football. I hope the NFL understands that punishment won’t make Cam heal faster — it would only weigh down a good man who already feels responsible. Let his kindness be seen for what it truly is”

Her message quickly spread across social media, garnering thousands of shares and comments. Members of Giants Nation praised her maturity and empathy, while Eagles fans applauded the way both families handled the situation with respect and humanity.

One fan wrote: “In a sport built on collisions, it’s rare to see someone speak with such compassion. Chloe isn’t just standing up for Cam — she’s standing up for what makes the NFL truly great.”

In response to the public reaction, the NFL released an initial statement, confirming that the league is still reviewing the play carefully. However, multiple sources close to the situation indicated that Zack Baun is unlikely to face punishment, as there was no evidence of intent or violation of league rules. The league noted that a final decision will be announced in the coming days and asked fans to be patient as the review concludes.

The statement immediately sparked a wave of discussion online, as both Giants and Eagles fans expressed anticipation and unity — turning what began as a controversial incident into a testament to empathy and sportsmanship.

Chloe ended her post with a line that resonated across fanbases:

“Cam will be back, and I believe Zack will keep playing with a lighter heart. Football is about competition — but kindness is what makes us truly worthy of it.”
