Cam Skattebo is getting the best treatment Philadelphia can offer and then some after suffering a devastating ankle injury against the Eagles on Sunday. After undergoing surgery, the team did a little something to help take Skattebo’s mind off his pain.

According to The Inquirer’s Jeff McLane, Philadelphia Eagles Chief of Security ‘Big Dom’ DiSandro delivered cheesesteaks and pizza to Skattebo at Penn Presbyterian on Monday. DiSandro has done a bit of everything for Philadelphia’s franchise since joining the Eagles in 1999, and apparently delivery driver is one of the many hats he wears.

The kind gesture from ‘Big Dom’ to Skattebo is one rooted in respect. Skattebo has broken onto the scene as one of the most dynamic rookies in the NFL this year beside fellow rookie Jaxson Dart in New York’s backfield.

However, his exciting campaign may be cut short following successful surgery on his dislocated ankle. Skattebo’s injury came early in the second quarter against the Eagles, seeing the tailback attempt to catch a pass but while being tackle, his leg appeared to fall underneath the Phili defender looking to make a tackle. His ankle appeared to be twisted after the fact, leading to Skattebo being carted off the field.

Heading into the matchup, Skattebo had proved to be an issue for the Eagles defense. During their first meeting, Skattebo logged a career-best 98 rushing yards and a whopping three touchdowns on Oct. 9. Perhaps he earned the respect of the Eagles’ brass during the effort. After all, even Eagles fans gave him a standing ovation as the cart took him off the field.
