It was a sweet celebration Saturday for new Giants running back Cam Skattebo and his girlfriend, Chloe Rodriguez.
Moments after the Giants selected the Arizona State star at No. 105 overall in the 2025 NFL Draft, Skattebo shared a kiss with Rodriguez during an intimate draft party in Chandler, Arizona, where they watched the fourth round unfold.
“I love supporting you, keep making us proud,” Rodriguez captioned an Instagram post of the heartfelt scene. “Time to head back east, go @nygiants.”
The 23-year-old Skattebo was overcome with emotion after being taken in the fourth round by the Giants, where he’ll join a running back room that boasts 2024 fifth-rounder Tyrone Tracy Jr. and veteran Devin Singletary.
“One of our favorite players in the draft,” Giants general manager Joe Schoen said of the Sun Devils standout. “The way he plays, the mentality he plays with, the toughness, the competitiveness, the grit.”
Skattebo is coming off an explosive season, rushing for 1,711 yards and 21 touchdowns.
He also tallied 605 receiving yards and three scores in the air.
“He plays with great contact balance, he’s tough as nails, you can use him in a variety of ways,” Giants coach Brian Daboll said of Skattebo, who finished fifth in the Heisman voting.
“Pass game he can catch, he can run routes, he can throw the ball. And he’s got very good vision and quick feet. Runs with power and toughness.”
With Skattebo’s NFL adventure officially underway, Rodriguez is ready for their next chapter in New York.
Taking to her Instagram Stories on Saturday, she posted a cozy snap of the couple embracing as Skattebo rocked his new Giants draft cap.
“Watching your dreams come true,” Rodriguez gushed.
She previously cheered on the Sun Devils in January when Arizona State fell to Texas in a thrilling 39-31 playoff loss. Skattebo was named the offensive MVP.
“Proud of my boo,” she posted at the time.
Skattebo is one of the seven players the Giants took in this year’s draft, along with star edge rusher Abdul Carter (No. 3), quarterback Jaxson Dart (No. 25), defensive tackle Darius Alexander (No. 65), offensive tackle Marcus Mbow (No. 154), tight end Thomas Fidone II (No. 219) and cornerback Korie Black (No. 246).
