Russell Wilson only played two snaps in the New York Giants’ stunning win on Thursday Night Football over the defending champion Philadelphia Eagles and it didn’t go well for him. He did, however, enjoy watching how teammate and game hero Cam Skattebo celebrated the victory.

The 36-year-old backup quarterback who started the first three games and went 0-3 had his big highlight of the night with his fit entrance.

Wilson did come in briefly in the third quarter when starter Jaxson Dart got hurt on a play. The backup QB would hand it off on the first play and then throw the ball into the turf on third down. After that, he was loudly booed by the home crowd as he left the field in a bizarre scene.

Fortunately for the Giants, Dart would return. It was all about running back Skattebo, though, and his three touchdowns on this night.

After the game, Skattebo went viral hanging on the set of with the NFL crew of Amazon Prime Video’s TNF where he ripped off his shirt with former NFL quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick.

Skattebo would repost Wilson’s reaction, and then Wilson would repost Skattebo’s post. Got all that? Here’s a visual.

It was a fun night for the Giants and their fans at MetLife Stadium securing their second win on the season. Wilson celebrated the win on Friday on his Instagram as well with the team’s photo of Skattebo despite his own less than stellar night.
