You're locked in to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
Cam Skattebo is opening up about a dark moment in what should have been a dream rookie season. The Giants running back told the Up and Adams Show Thursday that he seriously considered walking away from football after suffering an open fracture of his right ankle this year. That's a brutal injury at any level, let alone when you're just getting started in the NFL.
Shifting to Chapel Hill, where the football program Bill Belichick built around himself is running into serious turbulence. Michael Lombardi has resigned as UNC's general manager amid an ongoing investigation, and now attention is turning toward Steve Belichick and others connected to the program. This thing is widening fast, and it's a significant blow to a rebuild that was already under a microscope from day one.
And over in Baltimore, Adley Rutschman made his return to Camden Yards in the most devastating way possible. The Red Sox catcher went deep twice against his former Orioles teammates, connecting in the first and sixth innings Thursday night. The crowd that once adored him had to sit there and take it. Sometimes the reunion story writes itself, and it hurts.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
