New York Giants rookies Jaxson Dart and Cam Skattebo head‑butt at UFC 328 in Newark

Quarterback Jaxson Dart and running back Cam Skattebo, both rookie members of the New York Giants, were captured on video head‑butting each other during UFC 328 at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. The incident, which quickly spread on social media, highlighted the duo’s unusual morning ritual of head‑butting that they revealed during the 2025 rookie minicamp.

Both players were drafted in 2025—Dart at No. 25 overall after a standout career at Ole Miss and Skattebo at No. 105 after playing for Arizona State. Despite the Giants’ 4‑13 season, Dart posted 2,272 passing yards with 15 touchdowns and added 487 rushing yards, while Skattebo contributed as a three‑down back before an ankle injury ended his rookie year. The clip prompted mixed fan reactions, with some questioning the safety of the practice. Skattebo later defended the pair, saying, “No matter who is in this building, we have our quarterback.”
