Fox News reported that New York Giants player Cam Skattebo revealed that his pregame meal, a pretzel-wrapped hot dog, made him throw up during the team's loss to the Washington Commanders on Thursday. The outlet's report on the meal said it caused Skattebo to puke during the game.

According to the Fox News summary, Skattebo's account centers on a single pregame meal and a single game. The headline and summary are consistent with each other on the central facts: the meal, the vomiting, the game against the Commanders, and the Thursday timing. The Intelligencer has not independently confirmed the account and relies on the Fox News report for these details.

The headline and summary do not include the final score, the point in the game when Skattebo became ill, or any statement from the Giants or the Commanders. The Fox News item lists no author. According to its timestamp, the report was published on Friday, November 13, 2026.

Because the available material consists of a headline and a short summary, this account is limited to those descriptions. Details beyond them are not reported here. The description of Skattebo's remarks reflects how the Fox News report characterizes them, not a separately recorded version of what he said.
