Yet the most powerful moment came long after the play was over.
The hit that caused the injury came from Eagles linebacker
Instead — he went straight to the hospital to be by Skattebo’s side.
Witnesses confirmed Baun waited anxiously until doctors allowed him into the room. When Skattebo finally regained awareness, he saw the last person he expected standing there beside him — the man who accidentally ended his rookie season.
But there was no anger. No blame. Only respect.
Skattebo shared a heartfelt message to the football world:
“I don’t blame him — we’re all out there fighting for our teams. This is football, and injuries are the part nobody ever want. But when I opened my eyes and saw him standing there, I realized that respect in this game is bigger than any collision on the field. That moment said everything.”
Two players. Two rivals. One powerful reminder.
In a league driven by brutal hits and relentless competition, this moment cut through the noise — showing that football isn’t just about wins and losses. It’s about brotherhood. It’s about showing up when it matters most. And it’s about recognizing that even enemies on the field can be family off of it.
Skattebo is expected to undergo surgery and miss the remainder of his promising rookie campaign. The Giants have already begun preparing their backfield rotation, but the loss stings — not just for a team fighting to find its identity, but for a player whose season was just beginning to take off.
For now, Skattebo remains focused on healing — and grateful for the unexpected support in his toughest moment.
And for Baun, actions spoke louder than any rivalry could ever shout.
Football will resume. The rivalry will return.
But this moment? It won’t be forgotten.
Seahawks Legend Publicly Insulted by Broncos Coach on Live TV — Responds with Ice-Cold Message That Stunned the NFL
Seattle, WA – October 22, 2025
The feud between Seahawks legend Russell Wilson and Broncos head coach Sean Payton just exploded back into the spotlight — and this time, it played out in front of millions of viewers.
Following Denver’s dramatic 33–32 win over the New York Giants, Payton was asked about facing rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, who replaced Wilson as the Giants’ starter earlier this season. Instead of keeping it professional, Payton couldn’t resist taking a jab at his former quarterback.
“They’ve found a little spark with that quarterback,” Payton said. “I told (Giants owner) John Mara I was hoping that change would’ve happened after we played them.”

High praise for Dart … and a little shade toward Russell Wilson.

It was a subtle but unmistakable dig at Wilson — the same quarterback he benched in Denver two years ago to avoid a $37 million injury guarantee. And for many Seahawks fans, it was yet another sign of how disrespectfully their former franchise hero has been treated since leaving Seattle.
Wilson didn’t take long to respond. Without mentioning Payton by name, he posted a message on X that sent shockwaves through the league:
“Classless… but not surprised.”
Moments later, he added another line that cut even deeper:
“Didn’t realize you’re still bounty hunting 15+ years later through the media.”
The icy remark referenced the infamous “Bountygate” scandal that led to Payton’s year-long suspension in 2012, when the NFL discovered the New Orleans Saints were offering cash bonuses for injuring opposing players — a stain that still shadows his legacy.
For Wilson, who delivered a Super Bowl championship to Seattle and became the face of the franchise’s golden era, the insult struck a chord with fans across the Pacific Northwest. Many took to social media to defend him, calling Payton’s comments “petty,” “bitter,” and “beneath the dignity of an NFL coach.”
Despite the media storm, Wilson has stayed composed — embodying the same quiet confidence that once made him a legend in Seattle. His response wasn’t loud, but it was lethal.
And if history tells us anything, Russell Wilson doesn’t need to shout to make his point — he lets his legacy do the talking.
